Abstract:

Tribes are shifting to investing in renewable energy projects. Technological appropriateness is fundamental to knowing which renewable energy project is a viable investment for tribes. Through use of GIS and more in-depth examinations of individual reservations, Michael has sought to determine what mix of these technologies creates an effective renewable energy portfolio. The goal of this research is to provide tribes with a tool that will help them to partner with government and academic institutions to build re-newable energy systems to strengthen the tribe’s sovereignty.

We’re Turning 100!


To mark our centennial in the fall of 2024, the Maxwell School will hold special events and engagement opportunities to celebrate the many ways—across disciplines and borders—our community ever strives to, as the Oath says, “transmit this city not only not less, but greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us.”

Throughout the year leading up to the centennial, engagement opportunities will be held for our diverse, highly accomplished community that now boasts more than 38,500 alumni across the globe.
