IJNR’s Great Lakes Energy Institute will take journalists selected for the fellowship on a week-long field trip exploring everything from gas and oil pipelines and trains carrying crude through the Great Lakes region, to a potential new shale gas play in Michigan and Wisconsin’s largest solar array – built on the remains of a decommissioned coal operation. Topics will include Enbridge's Line 5, methane digesters, oil trains and tankers, renewable energy, fracking, nuclear power, natural gas storage and more.
