Thursday, July 18, 2024
11:30 AM – 11:55 AM ET
Location: Energy Transition Theater, Expo Hall, Hall F
In the context of increasing focus on climate change and rapid technological progress, grid resiliency has become a top priority in the energy sector. Join us for an insightful session on the crucial topic of grid resilience in the Mid-Atlantic region. This interactive session will explore the latest practices and design considerations for enhancing grid resiliency, with a particular emphasis on the role of Grid Forming technology. We will highlight a real-world case study showcasing a successful collaboration between SMA and partner G&W, which demonstrates significant advancements in fortifying the grid. The pioneering project integrates advanced technologies such as grid-forming inverters, which play a key role in stabilizing the grid and enabling seamless transitions between power sources. These inverters not only support the grid's normal operation but also ensure it can withstand disruptions and recover quickly. Through a detailed examination of this project, attendees will gain valuable insights into the strategic use of grid-forming technology to strengthen grid resilience. Participants can expect a dynamic and session with actionable takeaways and thought-provoking discussions.
