Understanding Energy Storage

The storage industry is expanding rapidly, with enormous implications for the entire electric industry.  It’s being driven by: the explosion of electric vehicles, the rapid penetration of intermittent renewable energy technologies, the poor capacity utilization of today’s grid, and dramatic cost reductions in battery technologies. 

 

Storage may soon fundamentally re-shape the way we produce and consumer electricity, with a significant impact on markets as well. In order to comprehend the impact of this significant technology, it will be critical to understand key aspects related to energy markets, technologies and economics. You will leave this course with a solid grasp of the fundamentals, the major drivers, and the ability to ask the right questions as this market rapidly evolves in the coming years.
