GCEN Executive Director Dave Robau gives closing remarks and thanks to everyone that attended and helped with Power Up Energy Expo 2020.

To build a truly resilient installation you must often look beyond the fence line. Bringing in community stakeholders is critical to the installation and building a culture of resiliency. This panel explores opportunities for new partnerships to work collaboratively to benefit both the installation and the community.

This panel brings together subject matter experts from federal and state agencies, academia, and industry trade associations for an interactive discussion around research, development, testing and evaluation (RDT&E). Panelists will discuss how installations can deploy new innovations to promote mission assurance and make installations more resilient.
