SUMMARY:RTCC Cleantech Spotlight: Charging Ahead: EV Infrastructure Challenges and Opportunities
DESCRIPTION:About the Event:\n\n\n\nElectric vehicle adoption in North Carolina has surged ahead of projections\, as consumers and fleet managers leverage the benefits of electrified transportation. As EV numbers climb\, utilities face increasing challenges in meeting energy demands while decommissioning traditional generation assets and planning for the grid of tomorrow. At the same time\, charging infrastructure developers must navigate constraints on charging capacity and deployment timelines.   \n\n\n\nJoin us as we take an integrated look at these issues and examine how utilities\, EV charging manufacturers\, and EV charging developers are responding to the exciting and dynamic challenges of EV adoption.  \n\n\n\nSpeakers: \n\n\n\n\nDr. Deb Wojcik\, Executive Director – RTCC (Moderator)\n\n\n\nEmily Belding\, Utility and Policy Engagement Associate – IONNA\n\n\n\nJacob Bolin\, Electric Transportation Specialist – Advanced Energy\n\n\n\nTom DelViscio\, Regional Electrification Manager – Duke Energy Carolinas\n\n\n\nJed Routh\, Vice President of Markets and Products for North America – Kempower\n\n\n\n\nPlease note that attendance is free\, but registration is required. \n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:RTCC Cleantech Spotlight: AI\, Data Centers\, and the Energy Landscape
DESCRIPTION:About the Event:\n\n\n\nThe growth of artificial intelligence (AI) and data centers is reshaping the energy landscape. While these technologies offer numerous benefits\, their electricity demands are substantial. A December 2024 report from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory found that data centers consumed about 4.4% of total U.S. electricity in 2023 and are expected to consume approximately 6.7 to 12% of total U.S. electricity by 2028.  \n\n\n\nOur panel will delve into the intersection of AI\, data centers\, and energy demand. We will focus on the opportunities that enhanced data analytics and associated technologies can provide\, the unique challenges this growth can present for energy infrastructure\, and the role collaboration can play in maximizing potential benefits for North Carolina. Speakers include: \n\n\n\n\nPaul Quinlan – Director of Energy Research\, ScottMadden\n\n\n\nAlex Boakye – Vice President of Solutions Development\, SAS\n\n\n\nIman Khosravi – Head of Sales and Tender Americas\, Linxon\n\n\n\nTyler Norris – J.B. Duke Fellow and co-author of Rethinking Load Growth in U.S. Power Systems\, Duke University\n\n\n\nHardeep Sandhu\, Project Director\, Linxon\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nPlease note that attendance is free\, but registration is required.\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister
