• The Second Annual Cal-IRES Forum, takes place on Monday, April 4, and will feature welcoming remarks by UC Davis Chancellor Linda P.B. Katehi and Bryan Jenkins, Director, UC Davis Energy Institute. The centerpiece will be a report by the California Council for Science and Technology on the topic of California’s Renewable Energy Future. Later sessions will include a policy roundtable reflecting on the study results and afternoon sessions to identify and hear industry views regarding strategic research to enable California’s renewable energy future. It’s possible this kickoff event will sell out.
