Energy storage technologies enable an enormous amount of efficiencies and capabilities for the electric grid — including the ability to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions alongside more clean energy resources.  Yet, recent studies raise concerns about the potential of increasing GHG emissions from storage. What’s the real story?

Join us for an essential webinar that examines the overall impact of storage on GHG emissions in the electric system. After reviewing recent studies on storage and GHGs, presenters will discuss whether concerns about storage increasing GHG emissions are warranted and explore market and regulatory reforms to optimize storage’s role in GHG mitigation strategies.

During this webinar participants will:

• Learn what it means for storage to reflect the emissions profile of the grid, and the opportunities associated with this reality
• Engage with leading industry experts that can address your questions about the role of energy storage in environmental and energy policies

Speakers:

• Lon Huber, Director for Energy, Navigant
• Eric Hittinger, Visiting Professor,Université de Lille & Associate Professor, Rochester Institute of Technology
