How do we solve yesterday\u2019s interconnection problems with today\u2019s technology? 

Alexina Jackson, Vice President of Strategic Development at The AES Corporation, pulls back the curtain to show us how AES is using cutting-edge technology to integrate MORE renewable energy into the grid. Because we need to add new energy fast and our current grid isn\u2019t up to the challenge, AES is inventing solutions as they go.

Expect to learn:

• How AES\u2019s new technology can push more power through existing wiring when the conditions are right
• Why more battery storage will add flexibility to the energy grid.
• AES\u2019s method for turning distributed resources (separate windmills, solar farms, etc.) into \u201cvirtual power plants\u201d 

AES is the leading developer for commercial and industrial customers in the US. They\u2019re on the front lines, inventing technologies to augment the efficiency of existing utility assets.
