Why this conversation
Immense, Rapid Changes in the Grid Profile are Requiring Us to Start Building Tomorrow’s Tools, Today.
Pioneer will be hosting the Edge of Grid Stability, a panel event aimed at sharing cutting-edge thinking in dynamic stability, FACTS devices and powering data centers — as well as comprehensive system analysis — required to reshape the renewables- and data center-forward grid of 2035.
The discussion will bring together system planning, design, and procurement SMEs from a major utility, power engineering leaders, and one of the major OEMs — the people actually doing this work — to discuss the latest innovations emerging on the global stage.
The conversation
What we’ll explore.
Grid Challenges & System Studies
The most alarming emergent challenges of today and tomorrow, and where experts are seeing the greatest risk.
Best practices in comprehensive system analysis — how innovators are scoping, standardizing and acting on study findings — and what intricacies are being solved for on the global stage.
Data Centers & Load Growth
Rapid increases in both energy demand and load fluctuation from data centers and industrial electrification will be commonplace after 2030.
We’ll discuss co-location and stabilizing measures that can help us prepare.
FACTS & Dynamic Stability Devices
E-STATCOMs, STATCOMs, synchronous condensers, battery storage (BESS), and transmission upgrades.
We’ll discuss the tools at our disposal today — and where they work best.
Emerging OEM Innovation
What technology haven’t we heard of yet — and what are the grid-stability tools of tomorrow that we’ll be able to deploy at scale?
Hear it straight from one of GE Vernova’s senior technologists.
Procurement & Supply Chain
Strategic insight to get ahead of long-lead procurement timelines while conducting highly robust system studies.
What can we do today to manage constraints and have major equipment in service when it is needed?
Action Plan
Material, feasible initiatives we can begin today to accelerate analysis, expand system knowledge and reduce procurement and interconnection times.
A practical path to bolster the grid for the needs of tomorrow.
