Julian will be joined by Bobby Simpson (Director of Grid Improvement Plan Integration, Duke Energy), who'll share his perspective on grid modernization efforts in our region, including energy storage, renewables, grid resiliency, and communications/security upgrades. Brian Murray (Interim Director, Duke University Energy Initiative; Director of the Environmental Economics Program at the Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions) will moderate a Q&A session.
