Load growth is a big opportunity for a modernized, stable and resilient grid. But, with this opportunity, comes a big challenge to address increased electrification, manufacturing sites, EV charging systems, indoor agriculture, data centers and crypto mines. During this session, panelists will review strategies to address future grid needs and resilience, how to analyze load growth trends, and will delve into the current trends and future projections of load growth in the electric power industry. Discussion will focus on comprehensive data like PJM load projections and utility integrated resource plans (IRPs).
