SusTech 2025 is hosting talks on Sustainability topics. “Unmet needs and unintended consequences: Considerations for the application of sustainable technologies in the Arctic” with Jennifer Rachels, Alaska Engagement Lead, Idaho National Lab Date/Time: Tuesday September 24th, 6:00 – 7:00 pm PDT Abstract: The application of sustainable technologies in the Arctic context requires consideration of weather extremes, the effects of permafrost thaw, and a thorough understand of microgrid management in remote regions. Many of these conditions can be replicated by modeling and other forms of data analysis. However, there are Arctic-specific challenges that aren’t part of weather or policy outcome models. Some aren’t represented in data sets at all, but are critical requirements for any project. This talk will outline some of those cultural, logistical, and community capacity factors you may wish to consider when working in the Arctic. Speaker(s): Jennifer Rachels, Agenda: 6:00 pm Introduction 7:00 pm end Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/434498

The MOVE Weather Team is one of several support components of the MOVE program. It includes both professionals and enthusiasts who are interested in weather and support of the IEEE MOVE Program. This support primarily involves providing information to MOVE Operations about conditions that might lead to the deployment of a MOVE team, and secondly, offering information to the MOVE team during a deployment.
