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 conversation 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).

Great discussion, I learned a lot. Louise White chose excellent examples to frame today’s possibles in context with needed longer timeline items. Her point about realigning power company incentives to favor better customer outcomes was a good one. More free market short term profits without starving the needed future capacities.

Thank you for this presentation. I look forward to finding the report at DOE. I am glad that you talked about the transition of our present grid system. I would like add the potential of decentralized power generation and storage that could equal or surpass centralize generation. A real game changer is the growing use of batteries. I se a national power distribution grid that time and load shifts.

Good stuff

A keyword to focus on from here on out would be 'grid efficacy.' With meeting greater demand in mind, is it more desirable to reduce losses, some of them quite routine, of generated energy, or to generate more electricity? Since only one third of all generated grid electricity is used, let's consider using more of the currently wasted streams. Solving the problem of the widespread industrial waste mentality, would remove the more obvious obstacles to reaching global goals.

Are there jointly run R&D centers or dedicated analytics teams out there that are widely accessible to utilities, power generators, and planners? It may seem that these fantastic solution sets, e.g. ceramic power lines, DLR, virtual power plants, et cetera, could be spawned far more spontaneously. Task forces, ones that might be seen as consultative, could move things along a bit more expeditiously.

Large energy users in the industrial age created their own energy, as a matter of course. Steel makers, for example, routinely made all of their own heat, and electric power, and continue to do so, even today. Should large scale tech companies follow suit, at some point? Offsets would certainly count, in this regard.

Yes, this is happening. A number of large internet linked corporations are building data center that will make their own electricity.

#45 ❤😂🎉😢 as we fade out natural gas, electricity will be in high demand for utility domestic Smart appliances, cooking, cleaning, etc.

I know they say you should never judge a book by its cover, but I’ll be honest, it’s hard to take this discussion about important policy issues seriously when the moderator is rocking a bitchin mullet. “Are the scissors broken in your house son?” Final review: 9/10 Good discussion, great haircut

Electric power demand has been flat for 20 years while economic growth was around 35% with No explanation or understanding of how this economic growth without increased electrical demand was accomplished. An example is Nvidia explaining to all that will listen that their newer AI chips are far more processing efficient reducing demand, eV charging at night after 10pm adding immense battery capacity to grid to absorb curtailed wind capacity, or was it LED street lights that reduced demand, or did national energy code requirements like computer control of commercial buildings better shutting off a/c, lights,etc., at night; ok too long but I could go on.
