The cost and reliability of electricity in Alberta are growing concerns as aging electricity infrastructure, increased grid congestion and increasing regularity of extreme weather events take their toll. Canadian innovators are responding with decentralised solutions that improve the technical and economic performance of our grids. Community-integrated energy systems, data-enabled demand response, and advanced controls and automation are key areas of innovation that can address concerns related to electricity affordability and reliability. This presentation provides a glimpse into the role that decentralised energy plays in Alberta's energy future.
