The Energy Transition: Gearing Up for the Smarter Grid – Part 1

May 19, 2021 /4-5pm CET / 10-11am Eastern

Rapid change these days has become a way of life. A lot will happen in the next twenty years. There will be considerable advances in technology, transformations in consumer preferences, new business models and continuing efforts to address climate risks. It is also clear that energy systems will need to adapt, perhaps in radical ways, to support new realities.

Questions addressed in this webinar:

  • What will the future energy ecosystem look like?
  • Will decarbonization lead to renewable or green hydrogen fueled transportation and heating?
  • What is the role of the grid edge?
  • Will industrial parks or rural communities become self-sufficient, using a combination of locally sited renewables, storage, demand response and electric vehicles as “sources” of energy?
  • Will non-utility aggregators of demand and distributed generation become major players in the energy ecosystem?

Join two experts in energy systems and economics in exploring how future scenarios will shape our energy systems and what the industry will need to be ready for. There will be opportunities for audience interaction during the webinar.
