Washington "Energy Day at the Hill" 2022

På baggrund af Esbjerg Kommunes unikke viden og erfaring indenfor den grønne omstilling, bliver Esbjerg hyppigt brugt som eksempel både i indland og udland. Dette betød, at borgmesteren Jeper Frost Rasmussen blev inviteret på udlandsrejse af statsministeren, Mette Frederiksen til Washington. Formålet var, at holde et oplæg ved "Energy Day at the Hill" for at fremhæve Esbjerg, samt hvordan grøn omstilling praktiseres i Esbjerg Kommune som Europas førende indenfor off-shore og vind. 

Oplægget blev holdt foran 100 tilhørene i Kongressen, hvoraf cirka halvdelen var repræsentanter for amerikanske virksomheder og organisationer, herunder også to senatorer, mens den anden halvdel kom fra danske virksomheder
