Register now for upcoming webinar Electric Utility 101: Generation, taking place Tuesday, January 31 from 1:00-2:30 pm (Central Standard Time). Aimed at public power policy makers and non-technical management, the webinar* will focus on the production of energy.
Webinar Description
Electric Utility 101: Generation
Power supply and delivery are highly technical, complex and interrelated issues. Historically the generation sector was made up of traditional production facilities such as coal, nuclear, hydro, gas and oil. Today, generation is more diverse and includes not only traditional fuel sources but also a wide range of renewable generation, such as wind and solar. In addition, integrated resource planning and demand-side programs also impact supply-side options.
This webinar focuses on the first step in the complex power supply chain, the production of electric energy. The webinar will also present an overview of the major types of generation characteristics when supplying the daily load curves.
Speaker:
Wallace Barron, President, Barron & Associates, Inc.
