Circuits | Day 2 - Grid of the Future

Near-Term Power Solutions for Load Growth: The Next Five Years “With load growth forecasts suggesting a rise in peak demand of 10-15%+ by 2030, a portfolio approach to investing in scaling available technologies across the entire power system is necessary. DOE’s Liftoff reports and National Lab analysis have found the US could add 100s of GWs of capacity across the power system by deploying readily available clean generation, transmission and distribution systems, and customer-side resources. Industry leaders will give you the rundown on some of the hottest technologies that can help meet load growth needs in the next five years.

Join this session to explore:

  • What are some of the hottest power sector technologies available in the near-term?
  • How far can these solutions get us towards evolving 2030 needs?
  • What are the top priorities in 2025 to keep these solutions on track for scale deployment in the next five years?
