Climate at noon: Dr. Jongeun You: Policy and Energy Siting

Dr. Jongeun You is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science and Public Administration at Northern Michigan University. Previously, Dr. You was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Colorado School of Mines and worked for SK Engineering & Construction.

This seminar will explore the relationship between various types of energy infrastructure and the characteristics of project locations, particularly focusing on how these factors contribute to policy conflicts during the energy infrastructure siting process. The primary emphasis of the talk will be an extensive analysis of gas pipelines, electricity transmission lines, and solar and wind power projects across the United States in a given year.
