DESCRIPTION:Last year Congress passed a comprehensive energy bill aimed at 
 modernizing the electric grid\, providing funding for renewable energy res
 earch and development\, addressing energy storage issues\, increasing acce
 ss to new nuclear power sources\, recycling and reusing critical minerals\
 , strengthening carbon capture capabilities and improving federal tech tra
 nsfer and industry partnership programs. This talk will discuss this lates
 t bill and provide an overview of IEEE-USA activities in energy policy. Of
  particular interest to IEEE-USA's energy policy committee are issues rela
 ting to the grid. Modernizing the grid will require improving both physica
 l and cyber security as well as increasing access to renewable and nuclear
  energy sources. Our guest\, Aline McNaull of IEEE-USA\, will provide an o
 verview of how IEEE-USA works with Congress and the Administration to addr
 ess these challenges.\n\nSpeaker(s): Aline McNaull\, \n\nVirtual: https://
