The leading annual transmission and distribution event for utilities, technology providers, and industry leaders New England has set ambitious clean energy goals and is well on its way to weaning off fossil fuels, but major obstacles remain along the path to 100% renewable energy, including the intermittent nature of wind and solar, lack of land for large utility-scale projects, and increasingly harsh weather. The region is tasked with modernizing its grid to account for more distributed energy resources while maintaining stability- accounting for record peaks and an emerging duck curve- yet policy inconsistencies and regulatory barriers across state lines impede progress.
