REGIONAL PARTNERSHIPS
As part of the I-WEST initiative, the School of Energy Resources through the Center for Energy Regulation and Policy Analysis (CERPA) is working towards a better understanding of Wyoming's needs and concerns in achieving a net-zero energy mix.
Our goals within the I-WEST partnership include:
Working towards a place-based approach to identify technologies that are regionally relevant and have the ability to achieve carbon neutrality.
Assessment of Wyoming citizen's opinions in relation to the social license to operate and environmental justice issues.
Outreach within Wyoming communities to understand the residents' goals, needs, and concerns about carbon neutral technologies.
The Intermountain West Energy Sustainability & Transitions (I-WEST) initiative is developing a technology roadmap to transition the region to an economically sustainable, carbon neutral energy system. The roadmap will outline ways for the Intermountain West states to meet challenges, capitalize on opportunities, and build an equitable energy transition strategy.
Working with the I-WEST initiative, CERPA conducts interdisciplinary research to produce value-added surveys, publications, and discussions on energy-related policy, law, and regulatory issues in Wyoming.
