Upcoming Webinars
Join Applied Economics Clinic and Todd Olinsky-Paul of CEG for a presentation providing an overview of the state of the art in virtual power plants including program design, state policy, grid benefits and basic economics.
A new report makes the case that behind-the-meter solar and solar paired with storage systems are an underutilized but essential key to meeting Massachusetts’ rising electricity demand cleanly, affordably and equitably. In this CEG webinar, panelists will present the report and discuss its findings.
A new report estimates the potential for behind-the-meter solar paired with storage in Massachusetts EJ neighborhoods and identifies possible solutions to address barriers to adoption. In this CEG webinar, speakers will present the report and discuss its findings.
CEG’s “Beyond Lithium” webinar series spotlights the emerging energy storage technologies beyond lithium-ion batteries. This session will explore ESS Tech, Inc., a leading manufacturer of iron flow long-duration energy storage systems with multiple projects in development.

The Department of Energy (DOE) Solar Energy Technologies Office (SETO) launched the Equitable Solar Communities of Practice program in November 2023 to support the expansion of equitable benefits in solar adoption. The program consists of five communities of practice that work to identify resource gaps, support the development and dissemination of best practices and resources,…
Speakers from Yale University, Connecticut Green Bank, Operation Fuel, Clean Energy Group, and The Towers discussed a new report describing the pressing need for climate smart technology in affordable housing in Connecticut, to ensure the safety and well-being of residents who rely on home medical devices.
This webinar will feature speakers from Clean Energy Group, Florida Association of Community Health Centers, Direct Relief, and American Microgrid Solutions for a discussion on backup power needs and opportunities at Florida’s Community Health Centers.
This webinar highlighted efforts to develop mobile resilient energy systems that can be transported to neighborhoods where the power is out, to support medically vulnerable and electricity-dependent residents.
CEG’s new report examines the opportunity for resilient solar+storage to provide reliable backup power to cooling centers. Report author Marriele Mango will present her findings. She will be joined by Nate Mills from American Microgrid Solutions, and Nicole Lim from the California Indian Museum and Cultural Center, which is in the process of developing a resilient solar+storage installation to support cooling center operations.
This webinar will provide an overview of how mobile solar+storage units are built and operated. Emergency response officials will speak to their experience deploying these systems in the field.
This webinar explored innovative solar+storage applications in vulnerable communities, including a mobile emergency response trailer and microgrid for medically vulnerable households, both on the island of Vieques. Panelists discussed barriers to resilient power development and local workforce training initiatives.
Marriele Mango (Clean Energy Group) and Annie Shapiro (Meridian Institute) were joined by Kristen Finne of the emPOWER program for a discussion on the need for resilient power technologies for medically vulnerable households.
Energy storage, combined with solar generation, can provide power to disaster recovery efforts when the grid is down. This webinar featured presentations from organizations implementing solar+storage in Puerto Rico: GS Battery, Civic Solar, the Solar Foundation, and Resilient Power Puerto Rico.
Energy storage experts discussed solar+storage solutions that could support short-term resilience and recovery in a natural disaster. Discussion specifically addressed current recovery efforts in Puerto Rico, and how solar+storage systems have been used in Florida and the Northeast.
