Dr. Y Leo Jiang-Engineering Seminar Speaker
New York State has enacted laws under the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA) that set some of the most ambitious renewable and emission reduction targets across the country: achieving 70% renewable energy production by 2030 and a 100% zero-emissions electric sector by 2040. The fast installation of clear energy for grid decarbonization presents significant technical challenges from a power system design and operation perspective.
This presentation will talk about (1) the changing electricity landscape driven by the policy goals for electricity system decarbonization; (2) the impact of climate change on New York’s long-term base electricity load demand; and (3) long-term generation capacity expansion to predict the build and retirement of generation and storage assets as influenced by policy goals, load forecast scenarios, and other factors.
