Tufts Energy Conference 2023

The Energy Sector of the Future: Innovation, Equity and Infrastructure

The 2023 Tufts Energy Conference (TEC) will be held in-person at Tufts University on Thursday, March 2 and Friday, March 3, 2023, and will convene a diverse and international group of leaders to explore how equity can be incorporated in innovation systems and infrastructure investments to bring about a just and affordable energy transition for all. This year’s conference will feature panel discussions, an exciting keynote speaker, an energy employer showcase and a networking lunch.

Panels of experts will cover a wide range of issues like how to increase equitable access to funding for energy projects, sustainable and equitable infrastructure design, the energy infrastructure needs of small island states, and use of energy in climate-smart agriculture.

The Tufts Energy Conference has an 18-year legacy of bringing together students, academics, public officials, and energy industry professionals for thought-provoking discussions on some of the most critical energy issues of our time.


TEC is hosted by the Tufts Institute of the Environment (TIE). TIE provides organizational support to the conference, which is organized and executed by students. At Tufts, TIE initiates and promotes interdisciplinary environmental education, research, and outreach amongst Tufts students, staff, faculty and external partners.
