New Jersey recently created the first-in-the-nation “Energy Resilience Bank (ERB).” Designed to address a repeat of the devastating impacts of SuperStorm Sandy, when over 8 million people lost electric power in the region, the ERB will provide $200 million for municipalities to finance clean resilient power solutions.
This webinar is one in a series produced by the Northeast Electrochemical Energy Storage Cluster (NEESC) designed to increase knowledge of fuel cell technologies and applications, identify best practices, and provide information and technical assistance. CESA’s Val Stori will be a guest presenter at this webinar.
Clean Energy Group’s Resilient Power Project hosted authors of the Rocky Mountain Institute’s recent report, “The Economics of Grid Defection,” which looks at areas of the U.S. where solar with battery storage is either currently or imminently at cost parity with grid-purchased electricity, and analyzes the likely impacts on utilities and customers. Panelists include Leia Guccione, Bodhi Rader and James Mandel of the Rocky Mountain Institute.
Every so often, an idea seems to take on a life of its own. For example, a year or two ago, every energy blogger was talking about “solar soft costs,” and how to reduce them. Recently, the phrase du jour is “utility death spiral.”
This webinar will explore the EPA’s proposed rule to regulate carbon dioxide under section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act, which potentially impacts states’ renewable energy programs and policies, including renewable portfolio standards (RPSs).
CESA’s Energy Storage Technology Advancement Partnership (ESTAP) is hosting a two-part webinar series on flow batteries.
We in the Northeast have seen firsthand the enormity of the changes wrought by Hurricane Sandy – not only the storm damage itself, but subsequent and longer-lasting changes in state policy addressing resilient power and the electric grids.
This webinar examines a new report by Clean Energy Group and the Council of Development Finance Agencies, which examines Qualified 501(c)(3) bonds as a mechanism for communities with 501(c)(3) organizations seeking to undertake significant clean energy projects.
A little over a year ago, the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center (MassCEC) began construction of the New Bedford Marine Commerce Terminal, a multi-purpose facility designed to support offshore wind deployment on the Atlantic coast.
The Minnesota Department of Commerce Division of Energy Resources is hosting an upcoming webinar on the distributed wind market. CESA’s Project Director Val Stori will give a presentation on best practices in turbine selection and marketing. Other presenters will discuss market developments and the USDA grant application process.
