Convergent Energy and Power’s Post

"We need to do better to ensure that everyone has access to low-cost, clean, and reliable energy. Put simply, we need more transmission lines across regions so that we have the ability to move power around, where it is needed and when. The time is now for lawmakers and regulators to enact smart policies to get these needed projects built." That's why American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE) CEO Ray Long supports #WhyTransmission with Americans for a Clean Energy Grid (ACEG).

“We need every megawatt of every type of [clean power] generation.” – Stephanie Smith, COO of Eolian Energy. That sums up the overarching theme of this year’s American Clean Power Association (ACP) #CleanPower Conference, where industry leaders agreed that in order to meet carbon reduction goals, we’re going to need an “all of the above” approach to applying all clean technologies. This is great news for NET Power, since our innovative plant design can provide reliable baseload power as well as load follow to complement renewables. Here are few other takeaways from the event: - The interjurisdictional nature of transmission means that states and federal agencies must streamline the permitting process - As the public becomes more aware of energy demand issues, their attitudes towards power projects are changing, but developers still need to engage with communities early and often to ensure successful project deployments - Workforce development can be a key driver of community acceptance as well as the industry’s ability to scale as quickly as we need to in order to meet demand We're already looking forward to next year in Phoenix! https://lnkd.in/eRM4UJhC
