Virtual Session
12:00 - 1:00 PM
There has always been an issue with making solar and energy storage projects pencil out in Texas. Integrated Solar Roof & Virtual Power Plant options change that equation. In this webinar, you will learn about these opportunities and understand how the following uniquely qualified companies shine a new light on solar & storage.
Executives from Aspen Power Partners, sonnen (A Shell New Energies Company), Ivy Energy, and TexEnergy/US-EcoLogic will lead a discussion that will walk you through the dynamics of solar plus storage. And perhaps even more importantly, the discussion will also cover the challenges and questions to consider when evaluating an integrated solar plus storage strategy.
