Energy Security and Climate Change Program

From grid reliability to energy security and industrial competitiveness, batteries are increasingly central to U.S. strategic priorities. Please join the CSIS Energy Security and Climate Change Program for a timely panel discussion on the expanding role of battery technologies—and what it will take to meet rising demand in an evolving market and policy environment. Speakers from the Department of Energy, J.P. Morgan, and Google will bring a breadth of perspectives to bear on the opportunities and challenges ahead. 

This event is made possible by general support to CSIS and the CSIS Energy Security and Climate Change Program.
