9th Annual Transmission Summit West 2017 | Infocast | 11 October 2017 | San Diego Marriott Gaslamp Quarter, 660 K Street San Diego, CA 92101

2017 brings unprecedented uncertainty to transmission executives and planners. Integration of renewable energy, the accelerating growth of the duck curve, and the shuttering of large coal plants are driving an uncertain path to regionalization, deployment of energy storage and other non-wires alternatives, and a lack of surety in where long-term investments in transmission can be justified. At the same time, the states are coming to the forefront in pursuing clean energy policies that depend on regional transmission solutions and expansions.
