This interactive roundtable will feature experienced agency contracting officers and energy lawyers discussing cutting-edge issues and lessons learned in delivering energy infrastructure projects under a variety of federal alternative contract mechanisms – including ESPCs, UESCs, ESAs, PPAs, Utilities Privatization, and others. Learn how to overcome legal and contractual impediments and move your project forward. Included in the discussion will be topics such as (1) the inclusion of electric vehicles and charging stations within performance contracts, (2) best practices in implementing energy storage, resilience, microgrids, or other non-traditional projects, and (3) the path forward toward incorporating the cost of carbon, resilience, and other benefits into the value stream of the project.
