Synopsis

Grid systems globally will need an uptick in the amount of energy storage assets to manage the growing amount of connected intermittent renewables. This issue underscores the increased need to invest in battery storage.

Increasingly, ‘resiliency’, ‘flexibility’, and ‘optimization’ are all buzzwords you may hear when referring to energy storage, but do you really understand the business case for deploying storage assets to enhance, strengthen, and improve reliability in the grid? Uncover the facts in this panel discussion.

  • Using emerging technologies like grid-forming inverters alongside storage to ensure grid resiliency.
  • Which grids provide revenue streams for providing services to ensure grid stability and how to provide those services to access those revenues
  • Preparing for emerging challenges to grid stability and the business case for using energy storage technologies to support the grid
