The Future of Flexibility: An Interactive Discussion (moderated by Josh Rasin, SMUD)
Description

"What does DR look like in 2030?” As we approach 2030, the landscape of demand response is poised to undergo significant transformations driven by advancements in technology, evolving regulatory frameworks, and increasing consumer awareness. However, several barriers remain, including integrating distributed energy resources into the grid, ensuring cybersecurity, meeting the need for robust data analytics, and achieving widespread customer engagement. Join us as we envision the role of demand response over the next decade, informed by trends in machine learning, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, automated demand response systems, and more. We will explore in depth the opportunities and challenges ahead and open a forum for anticipating trends crucial for developing demand response strategies that enhance grid reliability, promote energy efficiency, and support the transition to a sustainable energy system.
