Energy storage is a critical tool for electric utilities navigating the demands of a more dynamic, distributed, and decarbonized grid. This topic explores how utilities are testing and deploying storage to enhance grid flexibility, support peak load management, enable renewable integration, and provide fast-responding ancillary services. Sessions will highlight storage applications across transmission, distribution, and behind-the-meter contexts—along with evolving business models, ownership structures, and regulatory considerations. Learn how utilities are leveraging storage as a strategic asset to improve reliability, reduce system costs, and accelerate the transition to a cleaner energy future.
