Ezra Beeman joins panel at CleanTech Meetup: Flexible-Load and the Grid
About this event
The future of the Grid is reversed. Historically the Power Grid was about matching Supply to Demand, by generating more power The future is about adjusting demand. Reducing it when supplies are low AND increasing it when plentiful. All of this fits under Flexible load
There are a host of technologies being worked on to achieve this. Vehicle-to-grid, or V2G, technology is smart charging tech that allows car batteries to give back to the power grid. Battery banks in homes work to achieve the same thing. In essence, it treats these high-capacity batteries as not only tools to power EVs and homes but backup storage cells for the electrical grid. Join us for an in-person meetup where we’ll discuss advances in the future of the technology with public utility, SMUD.
Join other clean tech enthusiasts, entrepreneurs, policymakers, and businesses along with CleanStart as we work together to turn our region into a Clean Tech Hub!
Presenters:
- Denver Hinds, R&D Project Manager, Smart Energy Technologies, SMUD
- Ezra Beeman, Managing Director, Energeia
