The Strategic Value of Modern Grid Technologies

May 13, 2024 • 1:00 – 1:30 pm EDT

Please join the CSIS Energy Security and Climate Change Program for a conversation between Louise White, Policy Advisor, DOE Loan Programs Office and Office of Technology Transitions, and lead author of the DOE Liftoff Report on Innovative Grid Deployment and Cy McGeady, Fellow, CSIS Energy Security and Climate Change Program.  

The U.S. electric power sector is facing surging demand growth and clogged interconnection queues for new generation resources; policymakers face a strategic imperative to expand transmission system capacity. The participants will discuss the new DOE report and how key technologies can quickly and affordably expand system capacity while avoiding many of the planning and permitting challenges that face new transmission line projects.    

This event is made possible by funding from the Clean Grid Initiative (CGI).
