Stanford Energy Seminar: Low-conflict strategies for getting to gigawatt-scale renewable deployment

Prof Wu gave a talk at the Stanford Energy Seminar hosted by The Precourt Institute for Energy, focused on a big question: How do we build renewable energy at gigawatt scale—without running into conflict on the ground?

I shared completed and ongoing work on:

• exploring the role of land-sparing and low-conflict strategies for wind and solar development in the US (power of place national)
• the scalability of agrivoltaics (the dual use of land for solar energy production and agriculture) and the retrofitting onshore wind farms with solar PV projects (projects that students Ale and Riley have been working on)
