ISTC Webinar | Power Flows: Transmission and Generator Incentives

The US electrical grid is experiencing a rapid transition as cheap renewable electricity transforms the energy mix. With these grid changes, new supply is not spatially matched to demand, and the transmission network has become more strained. This talk would discuss how better market integration could thus lower US generation costs.
