Distributed Solar on the Grid: Key Opportunities and Challenges

Distributed, grid-connected photovoltaic (DGPV) systems pose a unique set of opportunities and challenges. Key technical and economic challenges related to DGPV integration are shaping how we plan, operate, regulate and even conceptualize the power system. Panelists in the webinar provided a high-level overview of the USAID Distributed Generation Technical Assistance program, provided some context as to the prospective role of DGPV in developing countries and discussed the key economic and technical challenges/opportunities associated with DGPV programs.

Promising Market and Federal Solutions for Existing Nuclear Power

Center for Climate and Energy Solutions

Without a significant re-commitment to nuclear power and change to the policy environment, the United States will continue to shutter nuclear power plants over the next few decades. Existing nuclear plants comprise a critical wedge of reliable and zero-emission electricity. This webinar will review the policy actions of a few states to avert planned reactor closures. It will also explore electricity market options and federal programs that could adequately value nuclear power’s environmental benefits.

ESI Africa

Is the South African energy mix leaving you with a feeling of grey instead of presenting a clear black and white picture? Are you interested to hear the opinion of how and why the South African energy mix is dependent on all clean power technologies to ensure a secure and sustainable energy network? Do you require clarity around the great ‘nuclear debate’ and the impact the delays on the IPP programme are having on the greater energy value chain.
