Panel Session: Energy Storage Systems Enabling the Self-Driving Grid (slides)

Renewables have become a major component of the utility grid. With solar and wind becoming cost competitive, it is even more important to address the storage issues that will allow these technologies to be more reliable participants in the supply of electricity. This panel presents the challenges, programs and technologies involved in making energy storage systems effective contributors to the self-driving grid. It also provides a glimpse of the actual research, development and implementation activities in this area.
