The Hoopa Valley Tribe is engaged in exciting work to help promote a greener, more resilient power grid. And they are being recognized for their good work! Linnea Jackson, the general manager of the Hoopa Valley Public Utilities District, is the California Energy Commission’s 2023 “Tribal Champion” award winner and inductee into the Clean Energy Hall of Fame.

Linnea joins the show to talk about the challenges of providing power, water and waste services for a rural district and opportunities to help better the Hoopa Valley through new investments in renewable energy.

If you want to celebrate with Linnea, you can join the ceremony in person or by Zoom.
