Sustain SoCal will host its 16th Annual Energy Event on October 16, 2025, at The Cove at UCI Beall Applied Innovation in Irvine, California. The conference, themed "Energy in Perspective," will convene more than 200 leaders, investors, and policymakers to examine practical solutions for clean energy adoption and decarbonization across industrial, commercial, and government sectors. This gathering matters because it occurs at a critical juncture when regional and state policies are pushing for accelerated decarbonization, making collaboration between diverse stakeholders essential for achieving sustainability targets.
The event's comprehensive agenda covers critical energy topics including renewable energy sources, hydrogen applications, nuclear power considerations, natural gas and renewable natural gas alternatives, near-zero emission technologies, waste-to-energy conversion methods, transmission infrastructure requirements, and energy storage solutions. Policy impacts on energy development will also be a significant focus area as the organization continues its mission to advance cleantech-driven sustainability throughout Southern California. The conference represents an important platform for addressing the complex interplay between energy technologies, infrastructure requirements, and policy frameworks necessary for achieving regional sustainability objectives.
Bringing together diverse stakeholders from industry, government, and investment communities creates opportunities for collaboration and knowledge sharing that can drive meaningful progress toward sustainability targets. By focusing on practical, real-world solutions, the conference aims to bridge the gap between theoretical approaches and implementable strategies that can drive both environmental benefits and economic growth throughout Southern California.
