Net Zero Cities: Innovation in the clean-tech sector
LOVELAND — The Boulder Valley and Northern Colorado have become hotbeds of startup and spin-off activity in the clean-tech industry. The innovation, often spurred by government and private sector collaboration, is among the topics that will be discussed at this year’s BizWest Net Zero Cities event on July 26.
A panel discussion starting at 3 p.m. that day will examine the technology transfer that has occurred from that collaboration, take a look at examples of public/private partnerships and discuss the technologies that hold the most promise for communities seeking to attain net-zero energy usage.
Net Zero Cities, held in conjunction with Confluence — Colorado Water Conference, looks at the key issues around climate change and sustainability. Water topics are slated for discussion in the morning on July 26 and Net Zero topics are on the agenda for the afternoon.
