DESCRIPTION:Featuring speakers Mark Z. Jacobson (Director\, Atmosphere Ener
 gy Program\, Stanford University)\, Phil Radford (former Greenpeace Execut
 ive Director)\, Mark O'Malley (Director of the Energy Institute\, Universi
 ty College Dublin) and others!\n\n \n\nRSVP today for the Third Annual Tro
 ttier Symposium in Sustainable Engineering\, Energy and Design! March 8th 
 and 9th at the Centre Mont-Royal from 6:30-8:30pm\, both days\n	 \n\nIn 201
 6\, the landscape for renewables looks encouraging and challenging. The re
 cent enthusiastic buzz and public support surrounding renewable energy con
 fronts doubt despite decades of roughly 30% annual growth in solar and win
 d production. Costs of renewables are dropping rapidly\, as photovoltaic m
 odules costs have fallen by approximately 10% per year over the past 30 ye
 ars and the costs of wind turbines by roughly 5%. Yet\, still only 23% of 
 installed capacity is from renewable resources. Why not a higher percentag
 e?\n\nJoin international technical experts and thought leaders as they exp
 lore integrating renewables\, energy storage\, and leadership needed to tr
 ansform society.\n\nPresentations include: 'Pick your battles: Championing
  clean energy at the corporate and community levels' (Radford)\, 'Renewabl
 e energy integration: the good\, the bad and the ugly' (O'Malley)\, and 'R
 oadmaps for transitioning all 50 U.S. states and 139 countries to wind\, w
 ater\, and solar power for all purposes' (Jacobson)\n	\n	Learn more about ou
 r speakers and program!\n\nEach year the Trottier Institute for Sustainabi
 lity in Engineering and Design (TISED) at ɬÀï·¬ and the Instit
 ut de l’énergie Trottier (IET) at Polytechnique Montréal take turns hostin
 g the Trottier Symposium in Sustainable Engineering\, Energy and Design. M
 ade possible through the generous support the Trottier Family Foundation\,
  this is a forum for students\, professors\, government and industry profe
 ssionals to connect with the general public on advancements for sustainabi
 lity through engineering and design.\n\n \n\n \n
