SUMMARY:SOLAR 2024: Connecting Technology & Policy
DESCRIPTION:Why Attend SOLAR 2024?\nThe National Solar Conference is America’s leading conference on the emerging trends\, technology\, and opportunities shaping the new energy economy. The American Solar Energy Society’s cutting-edge conference series introduces attendees to the leaders\, innovators\, and entrepreneurs moving the industry forward. With the solar energy and energy efficiency sectors changing at an unprecedented pace\, this conference helps participants understand the changes and uncover the billion-dollar opportunities. ASES supports the global energy transformation and believes a world equitably transformed to 100% renewable energy is an urgent necessity. \nThrough the ASES national solar conference\, “SOLAR 2024: Connecting Technology & Policy\,” we will elevate public\, institutional\, and governmental awareness of the critical role solar energy is playing in the global energy landscape. We must ensure that access to and the benefits from clean energy will be enjoyed by all communities\, especially those that have been denied those benefits in the past. SOLAR 2024 will promote ASES’ overall goal to “accelerate equitable solar adoption and universal sustainable living by educating and building community.” The conference will focus on research models\, examples\, and tools for negotiating the challenges to advancing renewables by following justice\, equity\, diversity\, and inclusion (JEDI) principles. \nAre you a student? Learn why students should attend SOLAR 2024! \nWho Attends?\nOver the last 52 years\, thousands of professionals from public-\, private-\, and industrial-sector organizations have attended the ASES national solar conferences. Attendees include educators\, contractors\, developers\, architects\, engineers\, installers\, consultants\, homeowners\, policymakers\, researchers\, manufacturers\, students\, and solar enthusiasts. \nNCCETC’s Executive Director will be speaking on May 21\, 2024 during the “Policy Panel: Efficiency First: Reducing Load through Energy Efficiency\, Tightening Buildings\, and Electrifying Everything for More Economically Stable Communities and a Fair Future” session.\n \nREGISTER NOW

SUMMARY:RTCC Cleantech Spotlight: Leveraging Virtual Power Plants for Grid Flexibility and Reliability
DESCRIPTION:As Distributed Energy Resources (DER) proliferate\, establishing an effective DER operating model becomes increasingly vital. Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) offer a creative solution to harness distributed energy resources to enhance grid flexibility and reliability. VPPs can also empower consumers in energy management and provide opportunities for innovative collaborations.   \nJoin the Research Triangle Cleantech Cluster and the North Carolina Sustainable Energy Association as we dive into what VPPs are\, funding opportunities\, and how they can play into the energy transition. This event will highlight how consumers can actively participate in and benefit from VPPs and identify opportunities for collaboration in energy management practices. Attendees will connect with colleagues from across sectors and learn how we can optimize the operation of distributed energy resources\, enhance grid stability\, and advance North Carolina towards a more sustainable and resilient energy system.  \nSpeakers:  \n\nThad Culley\, Director\, Public Policy\, Sunrun\nLon Huber\, Senior Vice President\, Pricing and Customer Solutions\, Duke Energy\nJulie Peacock\, Vehicle Grid Integration Advisor\, U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)\nAutumn Proudlove\, Associate Director\, Policy & Markets\, NC Clean Energy Technology Center\n\nREGISTER NOW
