I met professionals working on fleet decarbonization and extreme heat mitigation initiatives similar to mine at the CCEC Forum and brought a wealth of knowledge back to my organization.

After participating for over 10 years, I continue to appreciate how responsive and reflective this Forum is to the latest, greatest, and most impactful energy initiatives and policies.

This is my second time attending the forum, and I’m truly impressed by the remarkable progress that has been achieved. My heartfelt thanks to everyone for your outstanding efforts and spirit of teamwork!

CCEC is a great place to connect with local government leaders and learn about cutting-edge projects and programs happening across the state!

California’s most brilliant and committed thought leaders and change makers. I always walk away with stronger relationships, new connections, and tangible ideas to integrate into my own work.

This was my first time attending the CCEC Forum and it was an incredible experience. I loved connecting with people across CA working on the local and state level to execute energy efficiency programs. The panels that included representatives from community-based organizations as well as tribal organizations were particularly helpful to attend as an outreach professional.

This was my first time at CCEC and it was truly inspiring. Hundreds of like minded individuals collaborating and working together to make progress solving some of our biggest challenges. I’m inspired and will be back next year!

It was great! 100% will return.

CCEC was organized well and included some very interesting and experienced figures in the California energy world. All of the attendees were friendly and willing to share their experiences and listen to others’. Great way to start my new career, and can’t wait for next year!

Attending the 2025 California Climate and Energy Collaborative was transformative for the Village Solutions Foundation team. The Forum’s timing was truly perfect, allowing us to gain immense knowledge. The ability to scope our projects in real-time, coupled with direct input from facilitators, insightful workshops, dynamic breakouts, and invaluable networking opportunities, was an absolute blessing. The diversity of attendees fostered rich discussions and new connections. The palpable high energy level instilled a profound confidence that California’s Clean Energy Future is indeed in good hands.

CCEC is the premier space to learn and network. It’s like a family reunion every year!

The CCEC Forum provided a great venue for learning more about the work of all the authorized RENs and how are shaping California’s energy efficiency landscape.

The CCEC Forum was extremely organized and collaborative which made information sharing seamless and fun.

First time attending and it was great! Connecting with folks with similar goals is always inspiring. I really enjoyed learning about the innovative ways organizations are advancing clean energy through collaboration and partnerships.

For California, this is the premier local-government-focused event of the year, for staff, vendors, and others keeping pace with activities related to climate mitigation locally government trends.

CCEC was two day educational and collaborative packed event. I really enjoyed the experience and recommend it for anyone in sustainability or intersecting fields.

The CCEC conference brought impressive individuals working on climate action across the state to share ideas and learn together; the experience was inspiring as I’m sure that with this level of effort and expertise, these individuals and the organizations they serve will have a significant positive impact on efforts to address climate change.
