DESCRIPTION:Homes and businesses are electrifying with heat pumps\, electri
 c vehicles\, and solar panels. Simultaneously\, power outages caused be ex
 treme weather events are raising important questions about the health of t
 he power grid. For example: How should we value grid resilience? Who shoul
 d pay for it? How can we achieve it?\n\nJointly hosted by UVM&#39;s center on 
 energy and autonomy\, [CREATE](https://www.uvm.edu/cems/create)\, and the 
 local [IEEE PES Green Mountain Section](https://site.ieee.org/gms-pes/)\, 
 this event will feature short talks about grid resiliency issues from the 
 (i) public service\, (ii) utility\, (iii) research\, and (iv) technology p
 erspectives. Following these talks\, we will convene a panel discussion to
  dialogue about common pain-points and the path forward.\n\nParticipating 
 speakers include\n\n- Kerrick Johnson\, [Commissioner of the Department of
  Public Service](https://publicservice.vermont.gov/about-us)\n- Mike Burke
 \, [Leader of Green Mountain Power Operations](https://greenmountainpower.

  Dartmouth College](https://www.sustainabletransitions.earth/people)\n- Ce
 ce Chu and Xiao Wang\, Technologists with [Analog Devices](https://www.ana
