Webinar: System-Level Impacts of Voluntary Carbon-Free Electricity Procurement Strategies
Download Presentation View Webinar Recording Download Q&A Featured Speakers: Jesse Jenkins, Assistant Professor & Wilson Ricks, PhD Candidate, Princeton University About the Webinar: Voluntary procurements of carbon-free electricity are a popular avenue for corporate climate action, yet there is little available information regarding their impact on carbon emissions at the level of the entire electricity system. In this study we address this knowledge gap by using an electricity system capacity expansion planning model to assess the consequential, system-level impacts of…

Webinar: The Need for Intertie Optimization: Reducing Customer Costs, Improving Grid Resilience, and Encouraging Interregional Transmission
Download Webinar Recording Download Presentation Download Report Featured Speakers: Hannes Pfeifenberger, Principal, The Brattle Group; Norman Bay, Co-Chair of the Energy Commodities Group and Head of the Energy Regulatory Practice, Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP Hannes Pfeifenberger About the Webinar: Inefficient use of interregional transmission facilities unnecessarily raises system costs and reduces reliability. During many hours, interregional power flows do not fully utilize available transmission capabilities despite high price differences, or even flow power in the opposite direction to price…

View Webinar Recording Download Presentation Download Q&A Responses Featured Speaker: Andrew Reimers, Director of Regulatory Affairs, Lancium Andrew Reimers About the Webinar: “Power-to-X” is the generalized concept for using carbon free electricity to produce other things like synthetic fuels such as hydrogen or ammonia that can then be used as inputs for hard to abate end products like steel or cement. Despite its advantages in terms of decarbonization, Power-to-X has the potential to stress the reliability of the bulk…

Webinar: Weather Data Inputs for Power System Modeling: Mind the Gaps
Download Presentation View Webinar Recording Download Q&A Responses Featured Speaker: Justin Sharp, Principal and Owner, Sharply Focused About the Webinar: The electricity system is rapidly transitioning to a system in which most of the generation — wind, solar, and hydro — is strongly influenced by weather patterns. Load is also becoming more weather-dependent with the increased electrification of transportation and space heating. And weather powerfully affects energy-limited resources, such as battery storage, and behind-the-meter generation, which are blurring the lines…
