The Grid Modernization Advisory Council is planning to host an in-person event in July to convene municipal stakeholders and community leaders who are interested in decarbonization and electrification in their city or town.

Attendees will hear from a panel of speakers from the GMAC and learn about actions the state is taking to modernize and plan its electric grid, including electric-sector modernization plans.

Community engagement strategies and recommendations will be discussed through facilitated breakout discussions.

The event is scheduled for July 17, 9 a.m.-noon, at 100 Cambridge St. in Boston. Light refreshments will be served.

Those interested in attending are asked to submit this online form.

The Grid Modernization Advisory Council is an 18-member interdisciplinary stakeholder group that reviews and advises on investment plans by the electric utilities to update and improve the electric grid. The GMAC, created by a 2022 climate law, includes representation from various industries and interests, including the DOER, municipal planning, environmental justice, utilities, renewable energy technologies, and more.
