Electricity (ft. Energy storage): The All-in-One Technology Resource in North America's Electric Grid

Simultaneous Panel

The electric sector in North America faces significant challenges as it addresses the increasing demand for reliable and sustainable power. As renewable energy adoption continues to grow, energy storage systems play a major role on the decarbonization of the electric system, while maximizing the usage of existing grid infrastructure. The U.S. recent experience with energy storage assets can serve as a valuable resource for a fast technology adoption in both Mexico and Canada electric systems. Overcoming these challenges is crucial to unlock the full potential of energy storage, enhance grid flexibility, and accelerate the transition to a decarbonized and resilient energy system in North America.
