The National Association of State Energy Officials (NASEO) will host a combined in-person event on June 12-14, 2024, in Minneapolis, Minnesota to address state energy security planning needs with a particular focus on risk assessment approaches and risk mitigation.

Risk Assessment Approaches and Risk Mitigation Strategies Cohorts Workshop
The Risk Assessment Approaches and Risk Mitigation Strategies Cohorts Workshop will be held on Wednesday, June 12, from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm for members of the Risk Assessment Approaches and Risk Mitigation Strategies Cohorts. These cohorts are part of the larger U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) cohort series, “Energy Security and Grid Resilience Cohorts” sponsored by DOE’s Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security, and Emergency Response (CESER) and the Grid Deployment Office in collaboration with NASEO, the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners (NARUC), and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL).
