What's the Deal 2009 - Keynote Speaker Gina McCarthy - PART 1

Executive Director of the Connecticut Power and Energy Society (CPES) Kelly Kennedy was delighted when she secured former Commissioner of Environmental Protection Gina McCarthy as keynote speaker for the 2009 What's the Deal? energy conference, sponsored by CPES and CBIA.

The well-respected McCarthy, known for her work with the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI), was recruited earlier this year by the Obama administration to serve as the Assistant Administrator of the Office of Air and Radiation at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

McCarthy provided an inside look at about federal regulatory and legislative efforts on climate change, and how proposed changes could affect the power and energy industry.

Highlights of McCarthy's keynote address are shown in this two-part video created by Kelly Kennedy.
