In 2026, utility-scale energy storage projects in the U.S. will face headwinds that could slow the pace of a technology that is fast becoming a global grid staple, warns columnist Dej Knuckey.

Storm surge events like Sandy offer insights into what the worst of sea level rise may do to an area’s infrastructure and how the power industry needs to think about this slow-moving but inevitable threat, says columnist Dej Knuckey.

Planning for the grid of the future requires increasingly sophisticated prognostication, and the industry needs to look to new data sources to model the grid of tomorrow, says columnist Dej Knuckey.

Grid operators and utilities have a double exposure to the increasingly fire-prone environment: grid assets can cause fires and be damaged by them, says columnist Dej Knuckey.

The U.S. needs to take rooftop solar seriously and consider how it can be an essential part of our energy mix, says columnist Dej Knuckey.
