2021 Tipoff Webinar:The State of Demand-Side Energy Management in North America

CPower’s Annual State of Demand-Side Energy Management in North America Webinar Series is back for 2021!
Each of the sixth deregulated energy markets in the US has been tested in recent years, pushed to the limit by catastrophic weather events, rising demand, and the challenge of integrating renewables onto its grid.
As the country progresses in its third decade of energy market deregulation, a question that’s been asked in many notable media publications centers on whether or not competitive energy markets can provide the US electric grid with the energy and the resilience it needs to sustain its evolution toward a carbon-free future.
CPower’s team of experts are ready to answer this and other questions in the annual State of Demand-Side Energy Management in North America webinar series that’s become a must-attend event for anyone looking for an intellectual edge on the increasingly complex energy markets.
In this webinar, CPower’s Mathew Sachs, Ken Shisler, Jennifer Chamberlin, Peter Dotson-Westphalen, Mike Hourihan, and Nancy Chafetz will discuss the key issues affecting each of the nation’s deregulated energy markets, providing insights and wisdom your organization can use to make the most of your energy use and spend in 2021 and beyond.

Power Shift: How DERs are Creating a New Balance of Power (Webinar)

What will electrical power consumption in North America look like in 2050? Will centralized power generation still dominate, or will distributed energy resources–DERs–shift the balance of power generation to the energy end consumer? Our presentation takes “a look back” from the future to show how expanding DER implementation is laying the groundwork for a new balance of power, freeing organizations to independently pursue sustainability and reliability goals, and how monetizing DER energy assets is accelerating that shift. Our case study reveals how one university monetizes solar, battery storage, and demand-side energy management strategies to power its future, today.
Learning Objectives:
- Examine How the “balance of power” will shift from generators and utilities to the end energy consumer over the next decade.
- Explore the ways in which flexible demand and aggregation at the consumer level will change the grid infrastructure.
- Investigate the impact that distributed energy resources (DER) and microgrids will have on the state of grid modernization.
- Identify additional renewable resources, beyond solar and wind, that will see the greatest increase in adoption for both supply and demand of electricity.
