Utility Innovation Summit presented by The Grove
Several gigawatts of battery storage are scheduled to land in the Mid-Atlantic between 2027 and 2029.
The rules for how it runs are still being written.
This summit is about what our utilities, regulators, and entrepreneurial operators are doing about it.
Who's in the room: Utility operators, storage and gridtech founders, companies selling into utilities, and the ecosystem players helping bring the grid into the future.
What to expect:
A morning of real conversation between networking, panels, and interviews.
Live Interview: Writing the Storage Rulebook.
PJM is rewriting how storage participates in the market while the assets are already on the calendar. This is a conversation with one of the people doing the writing. Speaker to be announced.
Panel: The Utility's Role in Storage Deployment
Two utility technology leaders from two different states, working under different rulebooks, plus a founder who sells into them. What gets evaluated, who inside the building has to agree, what kills a proposal, and what a vendor has to show up with. New Jersey is paying, Maryland is mandating, Pennsylvania has neither, so the answers differ for reasons that are not preference. Speakers to be announced.
Plus plenty of time to connect: networking bookends the morning with dedicated time before, between, and after sessions.
