SSF20: Just Save It For Later: Batteries For Bulk Power

Intermittency: one of the biggest barriers preventing renewables from displacing traditional centralized generation sources. What if it’s a cloudy day? What if the wind isn’t blowing when demand is high? Traditionally, this is where centralized coal-fired and natural gas plants come in to provide reliability for the grid. Recent technological developments in battery storage are solving the intermittency issue and displacing traditional centralized generation. Battery storage is the key to decarbonizing bulk power sources. This panel will discuss the role of batteries in the energy transition and decarbonizing the bulk power system. • Erin Hardick, Lead Research Analyst, Zpryme, Moderator • Dave Maggio, Director, Market Design & Analytics, ERCOT • Russell Shaver, Consulting Engineer--Emerging Technology, Austin Energy

SSF20: Project Spotlight: JFK International Solar And Storage

In November 2019, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey announced that JFK International Airport would be the site of the single largest solar energy project in New York, a project that includes onsite solar generation, battery storage, and a community solar facility. At a time when both resiliency and equity for disadvantaged communities are top of mind across society as a whole, this project highlights the intersection of energy, transportation, and community. This panel will discuss the role utilities and other stakeholders can play in increasing resiliency and leading an inclusive renewable energy transition.

SSF20: Expanding Solar To New Markets

We're often told that solar power is more accessible and cheaper than it has ever been, but cost and accessibility are still obstacles to adoption in many areas. With the threat of climate change already affecting global weather systems, can we really afford to keep denying home solar generation to homeowners and landowners who want to be responsible but can't handle the price or logistics? In this panel we will discuss how we can continue to remove barriers to home solar and how we can make access to it more equitable.
