ODOE is convening several opportunities to learn about and contribute to the development of the Oregon Energy Strategy! Join for a morning or evening Listening Session on Wednesday, July 31. The Oregon Energy Strategy will outline potential pathways to shape an equitable clean energy transition that meets the diverse needs of Oregonians and considers a range of factors, including impacts to the environment, public health, affordability, the economy, and jobs. https://lnkd.in/gY3bzf5u

Inspiring morning at the Young Engineers Executive Breakfast! I had the opportunity to hear from the panel featuring leaders from Airbus, Aurecon, Energy Queensland, and BHP. The discussion centered around the critical elements for the energy transition, with the panelists highlighting these four key areas: 1️⃣ Energy security 2️⃣ Energy access 3️⃣ Green demand 4️⃣ Energy efficiency When asked which was most important, the consensus was clear: all four are crucial, though security edged out slightly as the leading priority. Such a thought-provoking conversation, especially given how context can shift the importance of each factor. It’s clear that as we work towards a sustainable energy future, balancing these priorities will be key.

A monumental step forward in building out the storage we'll need as we transition to a carbon-free grid.

Happy to see my team's work being recognized by Jeff St. John and Canary Media Inc.! This is exactly what we were going for when we designed the program: [Demand Side Grid Support] is available across the state, and it’s also relatively simple to take part in, according to Sunrun's Chris Rauscher, J.D.. That’s because it avoids the complexities of traditional demand-response programs, such as the “baseline” methods that estimate how much power customers would have used to determine how much they get paid for reducing consumption beyond that point — a counterfactual approach that’s led to all manner of disputes and challenges between utilities, grid operators and demand-response providers. Instead, the DSGS program’s approach to batteries is to simply measure how much power they actually inject back into the grid. Rauscher credits this type of structure with opening up the market for solar-battery systems in other markets such as Massachusetts and Hawaii. “Those simple programs are the ones that achieve the greatest success and reach the largest number of customers,” he said. That provides “a level of predictability that can allow us to offer our customers a clear value proposition at scale.” https://lnkd.in/gMwg9QR3
