SUMMARY:Resilience as an Asset Class: The Role of Local Climate Finance in Housing and Community Investment.
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Montgomery County Green Bank’s Resilience Financing Program\, Protecting the Path to Net-Zero (PPNZ) \nAs climate impacts intensify\, federal resilience funding remains insufficient\, leaving billions in unmet resilience needs. Local green banks and CDFIs are uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between community needs and private capital — but they require a model that works at the community scale while attracting sustained private investment. \nMontgomery County’s Protecting the Path to Net-Zero initiative demonstrates how a localized approach can de-risk investments and deliver measurable resilience ROI. \nDuring New York Climate Week\, join the Montgomery County Green Bank and technical partners PRE Collective\, AEI Consultants\, and Quantified Ventures for an in-depth look at PPNZ — a groundbreaking financing model that aligns private capital with scalable resilience strategies for housing and communities. This session will unveil a first-of-its-kind financial tool\, paired with a comprehensive technical framework\, to unlock catalytic capital for climate risk management\, water stewardship\, and health-focused housing improvements. From reduced operating costs to long-term savings through proactive resilience planning\, PPNZ illustrates how strategic investment—guided by standardized tools like the ASTM Property Resilience Assessment (PRA)—can unlock measurable value and risk-adjusted returns. This session will highlight the pivotal role of local green banks in designing market-enabling solutions that mobilize capital\, accelerate cross-sector collaboration\, and reframe resilience as an investable\, scalable opportunity. \nSpeakers \n\nSteve Morel\, CEO\, Montgomery County Green Bank\nLaura Mondragon\, Director of Climate Resilience and Adaptation\, Montgomery County Green Bank\nShalini Vajjhala\, Executive Director\, PRE COLLECTIVE\nTee Thomas\, CEO\, Quantified Ventures\nHelena Ariza\, Vice President\, Sustainability & Resilience\, AEI Consultants\n\n  \n✅ What You’ll Gain \n🔹 Transformative Perspective\nDiscover how local climate finance is driving market transformation.  \n🔹 Market-Relevant Insights\nExplore how PPNZ is creating new climate adaptation and resilience investment opportunities in the affordable housing sector.  \n🔹 Financial Strategy & Innovation\nUnderstand local financing structures that reduce investment risk while delivering measurable ROI. \n🔹 Cross-Sector Engagement\nConnect with leaders across finance\, policy\, and community development who are shaping the future of market-based resilience. \n🔹 Actionable Takeaways\nWalk away with strategies on how tailored\, needs-based financing can scale resilience across communities\, reduce climate risk exposure\, and drive long-term savings. \n🔹 On-the-Ground Tools\nLearn how tools like the ASTM E3429 Property Resilience Assessment (PRA)\, are informing smarter climate investments. \n  \nEvent Format:\nThe event will kick off with a networking session\, offering a chance to connect with peers across sustainable finance\, policy\, resilience\, housing\, and community development. This will be followed by an overview of the Montgomery County Green Bank’s Resilience Finance Program\, along with expert presentations highlighting investment opportunities and practical tools to guide effective resilience decision-making. We’ll conclude with a dynamic roundtable discussion focused on identifying tangible pathways for collaboration\, scaling\, and replication. \nWe look forward to welcoming you! \n

SUMMARY:Aquifers - Threats and Solutions
DESCRIPTION:​Panel discussion on Groundwater/Aquifer Threats and Solutions by members of the Presidents Council of Science and Technology. This is the official\, public presentation of their findings and recommendations. \n​This is a critical discussion for those who like to have reliable drinking water. \n​The U.S. is facing a serious and unprecedented groundwater challenge. Across the U.S.\, groundwater withdrawal has outpaced natural recharge\, while slow natural recharge has been exacerbated by climate change and precipitation variability\, including floods\, droughts\, and early snowmelt. Groundwater is a critical resource for agriculture\, domestic manufacturing\, construction\, mining\, energy production\, and other uses. \n​The largest use of groundwater\, at 70%\, is for irrigation. Moreover\, groundwater supplies drinking water for half the U.S. population and nearly all the rural population. Sustaining and securing groundwater is thus central to our Nation’s health\, food\, water\, and energy security\, and economy. Adding to the challenge\, much of the water in the major aquifers in the U.S. is fossil water\, meaning it was last recharged over 10\,000 years ago and will not be replaced naturally in centuries and millennia. In the western U.S.\, groundwater resources are being depleted at alarming rates. \n​The depletion has caused land subsidence and earth fissures as well as permanent reduction of storage capacity due to inelastic compaction of the subsurface formation.

SUMMARY:The Energy Transition: The Bull/Bear Renewables Debate
DESCRIPTION:Washington Association of Money Managers is pleased to present:\nThe Energy Transition: The Bull/Bear Renewables Debate\nWednesday\, February 21\, 2024 at 6:00 PM (ET) \nTime:\nReception will begin at 6:00 PM\nPanel discussion will begin at 6:30 PM \nCOVID policy: We require all registrants to be vaccinated against COVID-19 prior to attending WAMM events. For the National Press Club policy on COVID requirements\, please see The National Press Club website for more information. \nThe energy transition is well underway as the global energy system is shifting away from fossil fuels. According to BloombergNEF\, global investment in the low-carbon energy transition surged 17% in 2023 reaching $1.77 trillion\, despite the effects of elevated geopolitical turbulence\, high interest rates\, and cost inflation. Electrified transport (e.g.\, cars\, buses\, commercial vehicles\, and the associated infrastructure) is now the largest sector for spending in the energy transition\, growing 36% in 2023 to $634 billion. \nDecarbonization of the U.S. economy alone is expected to translate into a $4 trillion investment opportunity through 2050. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) signed into law on August 16\, 2022 includes about $369 billion in incentives for energy and climate-related programs\, which are projected to accelerate the deployment of renewable generation from about 300GW currently to over 3\,500GW by 2050. Furthermore\, the need for grid resiliency and “smart grid” spending\, as well as electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure requirements\, will drive over $100 billion per year investment in transmission and distribution assets. Tax credit transferability\, i.e.\, one of the key provisions of the IRA\, is projected to boost cash flow profiles by providing early monetization of tax credits. \nNonetheless\, the need to accelerate the world’s transition to a low-carbon economy is fraught with roadblocks in an environment defined by higher-for-longer interest rates and tighter financing conditions. Deteriorating affordability of EVs and lengthening life of internal combustion engines pose another challenge to eroding one of oil’s key sources of demand. IRA repeal risks in light of the upcoming election have also been a key discussion topic within the investment community. Although unlikely to materialize\, modified terms or the use of administrative powers to limit the law’s impact could translate into slower capital deployment and earnings growth. \nWe are fortunate to have highly respected industry experts to walk us through the opportunities\, challenges\, and risks associated with the energy transition: \n\nMichael Cohen is Chief US Economist and Head of Oil and Refining in bp’s Strategy\, Sustainability & Ventures group. In this role\, he is responsible for short-\, medium-\, and long-term oil market and industry analysis that informs bp’s Leadership Team and the bp Energy Outlook.  Prior to joining bp in May 2019\, Michael was Barclays’ Global Head of Commodities Research. He also worked for a decade in the public sector as an Economist with the US Department of Energy\, and as a senior member of the Oil Markets Division at the IEA.\n\n\nStephen Morel is the Chief Executive Officer and was formerly the Chief Investment Officer of the Montgomery County Green Bank (MCGB). He comes to the Green Bank with a professional background in corporate and project finance\, with a particular interest in the use of public and private funds to fill market gaps and catalyze investment into high impact sectors. Prior to the MCGB\, Stephen led a financial consulting company dedicated to connecting infrastructure developers with debt and equity financing sources.\nChristopher (Chris) Versace is the Chief Investment Officer and thematic strategist at Tematica Research\, a thematic research and indexing firm. Tematica’s intellectual property and content powers several ETFs from Rize ETF\, Han ETF and Amplify ETFs. The proprietary thematic investing framework that he’s developed over the last 15 years leverages changing economic\, demographic\, psychographic and technology landscapes to identify pronounced\, multi-year structural changes. Chris is the co-author of “Cocktail Investing: Distilling Everyday Noise into Clear Investing Signals.”\n\nPlease note that the Chatham House Rule applies – neither the comments of the speaker nor those of other participants are for attribution. \nPlease register at wammdc.org by 6:00 PM ET on Wednesday\, February 21\, 2024. The event is $35 for WAMM members\, $55 for non-members\, $20 for student members\, and $25 for student non-members. Please try to register early\, as the space is limited! \n
