Two economic development professionals will lead a free, hourlong virtual presentation to share information about the role of renewable energy in creating and growing healthy economic development within a community.

The Center for Energy Education will host a free webinar called Renewable Energy is Economic Development Thursday from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m.

The webinar features Lee Lewellen and Connie Neininger. The talk will examine strategies and activities that integrate clean energy into public policy.

Lewellen, strategic facilitator and expert on the dynamics of consensus building, has managed complex projects involving multiple individuals, institutions and media in more than 30 Indiana counties. 

He holds a master’s degree in sociology from Ball State University and is a graduate of the Institutes for Organizational Management and the Community Foundations Institute.

Neininger, senior advisor to the Center for Infrastructure and Economic Development, strives to assist local leaders in developing sound renewable energy policies by guiding local leaders to develop sound renewable energy policies within community economic development initiatives. She is a graduate of Indiana Wesleyan University with an AS degree in business administration and management and the University of Oklahoma’s Economic Development Institute.

“Our communities have a significant opportunity to strengthen and diversify its energy mix with clean energy in a way that creates jobs and helps lead us toward cleaner air and water in the future,” said C4EE Executive Director Mozine Lowe. “Please join us for this insightful discussion.”

The webinar is free and open to the public. 

The discussion will include an opportunity to ask questions and engage with Lewellen and Neininger after the presentation.
