U.S. Department of Energy Office of Electricity's Voices of Experience: Decarbonization Strategies and Grid PlanningMonday, February 26 | 12:00 PM - 4:30 PMThe workshop is sponsored by the U.S. DOE Office of Electricity with support from NREL and SEPA. All utility personnel are invited to join the discussion. Utilities across the U.S. are announcing carbon reduction strategies, plans, and mandates with increasing frequency. According to SEPA’s Carbon Reduction Tracker, 82% of US customer accounts are served by utilities with carbon reduction goals and 79% are served by utilities with a 100% carbon reduction goal. Most utilities—even those voluntarily announcing carbon reduction goals—are struggling to develop and execute a comprehensive carbon reduction strategy. While a carbon reduction plan must be tailored to a utility’s unique system, market, and geographical location, there is much to learn from each other. This workshop will facilitate discussion among utilities with a focus ontechnology and grid investments, customers and community engagement, energy equity and justice, markets and geographical dynamics, and other factors that must be considered when developing decarbonization strategies. Regardless of a utility’s current position in their journey, this is an opportunity for utilities to learn from their peers to better understand the terminology, challenges, insights, and good practices for developing decarbonization strategies and grid planning.
