LEAP OUTLINE:

Organization Science Applied to Creating the Nation’s Energy Future

OUTLINE

The LEAP will be transformed and for potential readers I am preparing an application that provides qualification guidance required for workshop participation. The national and regional workshops will be conducted with input information from different perspectives on 3 maps: climate districts, power transmission needs, and greenhouse gas emission

U.S. Climate Regions | Geographical Reference Maps | National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) (noaa.gov)

National Transmission Needs Study – Draft for Public Comment (February 2023) (energy.gov) 

 

Explore Map – Climate TRACE  From the global emissions map.

The program is to be launched soon with a NATIONAL PRIMARY DESIGN WORKSHOP  (NPDW) CONDUCTED BY 12 INVITED AND REGISTERED PARTICIPANTS. A LIST OF POTENTIAL PARTICIPANT INVITEES IS LISTED BELOW UNDER THE HEADING:
GLOBAL GUIDING INLUENCERS IN LIGHT ENERGY.”

LEAP Qualification Instructions and Application Form for Becoming a Participant in any LEAP Workshop:

A general Form for all inquiries In a Workshop. Participant Application Form, this is the first of three points of primary information to be submitted by qualified interested readers in the LEAP workshop program,

i.e.

  • 1) which climate region are they in residence;
  • 2) Which Power Transmission Organization and region are the residents.
  • 3) Residency in which gas emissions region coincides with selected climate and power needs regions.

Each applicant must declare which Light Energy Resource in which to qualify for workshop participation.

Information provided in the application determines which of many concurrent workshops to direct the applicant for registration in online groups.

Applicant must provide address and payment merchant information for Registration Fees to be paid before application approval.

Regional workshops are to be created and organized in all of the Climate Regions, with all Light Energy Resources represented by the registered and self-organized participants,

National Workshops for the LEAP Program, for Design, and for Action, are conducted online with 12 Qualified and fee-registered Participants. These members are limited to 12 per workshop and are committed to engaging in whole systems representing all light energy resources. The outcome of the National LEAP Workshops will inform all subsequent Regional Workshops.

RATIONALE

NATIONAL PRIMARY DESIGN WORKSHIOP (NPDW):

Accelerated Strategy and Marketing Campaign encompassing all eight primary Light Energy Resources Participants will be invited to register from a pre-selected list of Global Guiding Influencers (GGI). See list below. NPDW size will be limited to a Maximum of 12 selforganizing participants, with each Resource represented by two participants. Cost to each participant is a $4500. fee paid-in and held in escrow by a payment merchant until 12 invited participants register – then fees will be directed to cover cost of a podcast to be scheduled. See below the required information (name, contact, specific resource focus) for fee payment and registration. Outcome results of the NPDW will be used to inform the follow-on National Action Workshop. Readers interested in being participants for the follow-on national and regional Action workshops, See Navigations to find where and how you might participate and register: Workshop Registration, Cost, Conditions and Direction see “Navigations” for registration Instructions for information required and payment. (Below is pre-selected list of GGI to be invited)

NATIONAL ACTION WORKSHOP(NAW):

Participants minimum 16: 2 participants required for each of 8 specific Resources. Participant fee is escrowed $1500. When required minimum number of self-organizing participants is paid-in, escrow is directed to schedule and produce a podcast for the NAW Workshop. See the NPDW description for information required and payment instructions. Previously invited selected GGI are given priority registration. All results of the NAW Workshop will be made available to inform each of the following 9 Regional Acton Workshops.

REGIONAL ACTION WORKSHOPS (RAW- 1, 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9):

Each Regional workshop requires a minimum 16 self-organizing participants per Region (2 per each Resource). Escrowed Registration Fee is $3000. Same terms as above. SEE MAP below for Participant applicants to locate and identify their region for a specific RAW.
