Name
From Enabling Customer Electrification to Cost-Effective Demand Management (moderated by Nick Fiore, SDG&E)
Description
As electric vehicles, heat pumps, and other behind-the-meter technologies rapidly expand, California must find ways to manage their growing loads while delivering value to customers and the grid. This session explores how utilities and technology innovators are moving from individual demand-response and electrification pilots toward scalable, coordinated load management by using flexible technologies, rates, customer data, advanced metering, and innovative solutions that can enable electrification while avoiding costly system upgrades.
Moderated by Nick Fiore, Clean Transportation Innovation Manager, San Diego Gas & Electric.
