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).
Learning Objectives:
Gain insights into strategies for managing future grid needs and enhancing resilience in the face of increasing electrification and industrial demands.
Learn how to analyze and interpret load growth trends and projections, using comprehensive data such as PJM load projections and utility integrated resource plans (IRPs).
Understand the current and future trends in load growth within the electric power industry, including implications for EV charging systems, indoor agriculture, data centers, and other emerging sectors.
