Non-Wires Alternatives (NWA) and Future Grid Innovations

Organization:
EUCI
Location:
Online, Colorado, United States
Start Date:
April 30, 2024
End Date:

Description
EUCI’s annual Non-Wires Alternatives (NWA) Conference serves as a forum for the energy industry to explore the dynamic landscape of NWA projects and their increasing prominence as replacements for traditional—and often expensive—transmission and distribution upgrades.

The program is designed to assess various Non-Wires Alternatives (NWAs) projects and technologies. It will explore their market and regulatory drivers, challenges, overall resource value, and strategies for grid deployment.

Join us for this virtual conference that spotlights the potential of non-wires alternatives, focusing on their capacity to reduce costs and emissions, and learn best practices for NWA implementation and revenue generation strategies.
