POWER UP SYMPOSIUMS
7Skyline is excited to announce our 2025 roster of community Power Up energy symposiums in collaboration with Tribal governments, Tribal utilities, and Tribal energy enterprises across the country. Our Power Up events are free and open to the public.
Details are posted here: www.7skyline.com/events. Reach out to us at events@7Skyline.com if you would like to volunteer or sponsor (all levels of sponsorship welcome) or to reserve a complimentary meal (first 150 served at each event).
About Power Ups:
These on-reservation events bring nationally recognized Tribal energy experts, project financing entities, developers, technology and engineering companies, and nonprofits to meet with Tribal members. We have several exciting on-the-ground demos lined up with our partners. 7Skyline’s accessible, grassroots approach brings energy experts directly to Tribal communities for inclusive, culturally respectful, and meaningful exchanges. Community members interested in learning more about energy transition options and potential benefits should join. Among the energy topics discussed at Power Ups are:
​​
-
Tips about weatherization to keep homes cooler in the summer and about energy efficiency;
-
Sharing comments and getting answers to questions about going solar; and
-
Learning about innovative energy projects across Indian Country, including utility-scale generation and Tribal utility formation.
​​
We hope to inspire collaborations that become, for example, Tribe-led energy resilience centers, solar-on-school projects, geothermal projects fueling energy sovereignty, utility-scale energy and storage developments, and much needed electric distribution and transmission upgrade projects owned by Tribes.​​
