Upcoming – Energy Storage for Smart Grid Applications Webinar – May 14th

Event Overview

Join Said Al-Hallaj, Chief Battery Scientist at Beam Global and Research Professor at University of Illinois at Chicago, for an in-depth session exploring the critical role of energy storage in modern power systems.

As renewable energy sources such as wind and solar continue to scale, grid operators face increasing challenges around stability and power quality. This webinar will examine how energy storage systems, particularly lithium-ion batteries, are enabling more flexible, resilient, and efficient grid infrastructure.

The session will also address key considerations including demand response, behind-the-meter storage, and the safety challenges associated with battery technologies, including thermal runaway.


Key Topics

  • The role of energy storage in supporting grid stability
  • Managing renewable intermittency with lithium-ion batteries
  • Behind-the-meter storage and demand response strategies
  • Frequency and voltage regulation in smart grids
  • Safety considerations and thermal runaway risks
