19th Annual State of the Island Economic Summit

The three-day event held October 28-30th, explored the real-world investments and innovations needed to scale renewables, strengthen energy storage, modernize the grid, and support locally driven, Indigenous-led solutions.

 

At this year’s State of the Island Economic Summit hosted by the Vancouver Island Economic Alliance, Yuho joined leaders from across the region for the Climate, Energy & Resilience session, a meaningful conversation about how communities, Nations, utilities, and private partners are working together to build a more reliable and sustainable energy future on Vancouver Island.

Sharing a few moments from the Summit as Yuho connected with partners, learned from regional leaders, and contributed to conversations shaping the Island’s clean-energy path forward.
