Tufts Energy Conference Tufts Energy Conference 2023 - The Energy Sector of the Future: Innovation, Equity and Infrastructure

The annual Tufts Energy Conference (TEC) is a dynamic forum for cross-border and cross-sector discussions on pressing energy issues. TEC convenes speakers, students, and professionals from a variety of disciplines to provide complementary and contrasting views on a wide range of energy topics. This vision is informed by a rich appreciation for the need for dialogue to promote meaningful solutions

to the challenges facing the energy sector. The Tufts Energy Conference is organized by a diverse mix of Tufts undergraduates and graduate students from The Fletcher School of Law & Diplomacy, the Urban and Environmental Policy & Planning program, and the School of Arts, Sciences & Engineering. TEC traces its history to the Tufts Energy Forum, launched in 2005 as an initiative of the Tufts Institute for Global Leadership. TEC now receives support from a variety of partners including corporate sponsors, promotional partners, and Tufts University student groups, departments, and institutes.
