Building the ‘Energy Cloud’

Breakout
Grand Ballroom Salon C

Distributed energy resources have transformed power generation and consumption from one-way power systems to a complex, two-way "energy cloud." That means energy consumers have more considerations than ever before – including offsite and onsite renewables, energy storage and microgrids, energy efficiency and demand response. This session looks at innovations that are advancing the emerging energy cloud, and what that means for energy procurement and company operations.
