President Donald Trump has made energy a clear focus for his second term in the White House. Having campaigned on an “America First” platform that highlighted domestic fossil-fuel growth, the reversal of climate policies and clean energy incentives advanced by the Biden administration, and substantial tariffs on key US trading partners, he declared an “energy emergency” on his first day in office.
President Donald Trump’s administration is promising an energy policy overhaul that would fundamentally reshape America's climate and energy policies. Trump and Republican leaders have pledged to pull back...

About Us
We are the premier hub and policy institution for global energy thought leadership. Energy impacts every element of our lives, and our trusted fact-based research informs the decisions that affect all of us.
This roundtable is open only to currently-enrolled Columbia University students.
Please join the Center on Global Energy Policy (CGEP) at Columbia University’s School of International Public Affairs for a student-only lunch and roundtable discussion withDr. Destenie Nock, visiting faculty member at CGEP and an assistant professor of engineering and public policy and civil and environmental engineering at Carnegie Mellon University.
Dr. Nock will present her research on the multiple dimensions of energy poverty in the United States and discuss how energy poverty may look different depending on the climate zone and the utility region. She will also discuss her work to uncover hidden forms of energy poverty using smart meter data and demographic analysis and how energy transitions can be planned in a more equitable manner.
Lunch will be provided.
Biography
Dr. Destenie Nockis a leader in energy justice and sustainable energy transition trade-off analysis. In her role as an assistant professor in civil and Environmental engineering (CEE), and engineering and public policy (EPP), she creates optimization and decision analysis tools that evaluate the sustainability, equity, and reliability of power systems. Nock is the recipient of six National Science Foundation (NSF) grants on energy, resilience, and energy justice. She is also the CEO of People’s Energy Analytics, an energy justice-based start-up company. Nock holds a Ph.D. in industrial engineering and operations research from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where she was an NSF graduate research fellow and an offshore wind energy fellow from the Integrative Graduate Education and Research Traineeship (IGERT). She earned an MSc in leadership for sustainable development at Queen’s University of Belfast, and two BS degrees in electrical engineering and applied math at North Carolina A&T State University.

President Donald Trump has made energy a clear focus for his second term in the White House. Having campaigned on an “America First” platform that highlighted domestic fossil-fuel growth, the reversal of climate policies and clean energy incentives advanced by the Biden administration, and substantial tariffs on key US trading partners, he declared an “energy emergency” on his first day in office.
Nuclear power is being weighed in energy transition plans around the world, as countries seek to replace fossil fuels with low-carbon alternatives while also meeting growing energy demand and maintaining reliability and affordability.
