Hybrid Energy Systems with Storage: Enhancing Grid Operations and Economic Performance
Tuesday, May 5, 12:30 – 2:00 pm
Hybrid energy systems that incorporate storage alongside other energy assets, such as dispatchable generation, controllable loads, or multiple types of storage, offer new pathways to improve grid operations and reduce system costs. This panel brings together experts from national laboratories, industry, and academia to explore the role of hybrid energy systems in modern grid planning and operations. Panelists will share recent advancements, discuss economic and technical benefits, and examine deployment experiences across different grid contexts. The session will also address integration challenges and design considerations, providing a platform for in-depth discussion on how to best leverage hybrid energy systems with storage for future-ready power systems.
