 8570674418\n\nAbout the talk:\n\nCalifornia sits at the center of three co
 lliding forces: surging electricity demand driven by data centers and elec
 trification\, rising costs that are squeezing households and businesses\, 
 and wildfire risk that is reshaping how utilities build\, maintain\, and p
 rotect the grid.\n\nWhat does this mean for rates\, reliability\, and the 
 future of the state&#39;s energy system? And what can actually be done about i
 t?\n\nCal Alumni of Silicon Valley is hosting a half-day energy forum brin
 ging together academic research\, alumni perspectives\, and industry exper
 ience. Professor Severin Borenstein\, Faculty Director of the Energy Insti
 tute at Haas\, will deliver a keynote on how data centers are affecting el
 ectricity markets and what practical steps exist to make energy more affor
 dable. An alumni panel will explore energy topics from across the Cal comm
 unity. And PG&amp;E will present on the wildfire mitigation strategies they ar
 e deploying to protect California&#39;s grid.\n\nWhether you work in energy\, 
 tech\, policy\, or are simply a ratepayer who wants to understand what is 
 driving your bill\, this is a conversation worth being part of.\n\nDate: T
