SIGNATURE SERIES | Powering the Nation: Energy, Minerals, and Nuclear Renewal

March Signature Series Event | Powering the Nation: Energy, Minerals, and Nuclear Renewal 

Attendees joined the NACD North Texas Chapter for a fireside chat with Jeffrey McClure, Senior Advisor at the U.S. Department of Energy, as we explored how federal energy financing programs are shaping the future of U.S. energy infrastructure.

This discussion considered how emerging financing tools and policies are being deployed to address reliable energy supply, grid modernization, critical mineral supply chains, and rising demand from advanced technologies and industry.

Attendees learned critical insights and analysis on:

•    How federal financing programs evaluate and prioritize energy and infrastructure projects
•    Opportunities and challenges in scaling baseload and dispatchable power sources, including nuclear, geothermal, and hydropower
•    Strategies for strengthening domestic supply chains for critical minerals and energy materials
•    The role of public-private partnerships in advancing next-generation energy technologies
•    What directors should understand about energy security, infrastructure investment, and long-term cost dynamics

This session provided a clearer understanding of national energy priorities, financing mechanisms, and technology trends - and how these may affect board directors and the organizations they serve.
