Energy storage is a difficult process, and as the industry becomes comprised of new technologies it is important for professionals to remain aware of best practices.

This week, leaders in the sector will have a chance to further educate themselves during Energy Storage North America (ESNA) in San Diego, California from November 5-7.

ESNA 2019 has a mission to educate and inspire, and this year it will attempt to do this through four distinct conference tracks.

Utility

For two days, attendees will learn the latest on all things utilities as the world heads into a clean energy future. From safety advice to long duration energy storage needs, participants will hear from experienced professionals about how to operate successful utility systems.

Smart Dispatch & Operations

As the world becomes smarter, more connected and more efficient, grid operators must stay up to date with the latest tools at their disposal. This track will provide attendees with a firsthand look at the newest technologies and how they can reduce costs going forward.

Developer/ C&I

This track will span the course of two days, with a mix of intermediate and advanced energy storage topics. These include how to finance and insure projects as well as an introduction to the latest energy storage solutions for projects of all size.

Global Grid

One of ESNA’s flagship programs each year is the Global Grid Transformation (GGT). The track brings international stakeholders together for a roundtable and workshops around grid transformation and country-to-country collaboration. This year GGT will focus on the promotion of decarbonized, resilient and affordable power grids.

Solar panels installed in 2020 could supply 21% of solar silver by 2035

Solar panels installed in 2020 could supply 21% of solar silver by 2035

Recycling solar panels installed in 2020 could supply up to 21% of the silver needed for new panel production by 2035. Technical advances are making panel recycling more economic. Buyers and asset owners can start modeling recycled supply and retirement value.

  • 01Panels installed in 2020 could supply up to 21% of the silver needed for solar panel production in 2035, a 15-year lag that suggests recycled supply could be estimated from installation records.
  • 02European researchers estimate recycling could cover about 25% of cobalt and 15% of lithium, nickel and manganese supply by 2030.
  • 03A recycler's recovery rate means little without its purity: TNO's laser process reported roughly 97% yield with silver at 99.7% purity, the pairing that tells a manufacturer whether the metal is usable.

Massachusetts queue delays put 2027 solar tax credits at risk

Massachusetts queue delays put 2027 solar tax credits at risk

Catalyst Power says interconnection delays are now a tax-credit risk, not just a schedule risk. In Massachusetts, a project tied to a 2029 transmission upgrade could miss the Dec. 31, 2027 deadline that SEIA says now governs many solar projects, putting 30% to 50% of ITC value at risk.

  • 01SEIA says solar projects that begin construction after July 4, 2026 must be placed in service by Dec. 31, 2027.
  • 02FERC's cluster-study reforms set study deadlines and late-study penalties, but they do not guarantee a needed grid upgrade finishes before a project's tax clock runs out.

Only 33% of utility executives call asset management advanced, IFS survey finds

Only 33% of utility executives call asset management advanced, IFS survey finds

Fifty-seven percent of utility executives call AI critical to cutting costs. Only 33% rate their asset lifecycle management as advanced, and 49% report operational data silos.

  • 01Fifty-seven percent of utility executives call AI critical to cutting costs, but only 33% rate the asset management that AI would run on as advanced.
  • 02Half of executives say asset management runs in silos with limited predictive capability, suggesting early AI spend may go to data integration before models.
  • 03Pew says grid modernization capex is pressuring rates; it also says using DERs via virtual power plants could serve peak demand at 40%–60% of traditional costs and help defer or avoid some infrastructure upgrades.
