September 22 at 3:30pm to 5:00pm
Anna E. Croop - Session Leader

As our society tackles the issue of climate change in a world where electricity usage and dependence increase daily, one of the key benefits of a smarter grid will be the decarbonization of the grid. This panel looks at the results of smart grid demonstration projects that have been deployed to assess their environmental impact both from the distribution as well as the transmission side. It explores issues related to system optimization, energy efficiency, the integration of renewables, and energy storage from the perspective of different stakeholders.
