The inaugural IEEE Power & Energy (PES) Summit on Achieving a More Reliable and Resilient Energy Future will focus on practical experiences by the power and energy industry to achieve a more reliable and resilient electric power grid. The summit will focus on efforts to drive for reliability performance through outage reduction and quicker response. The summit will also include system level thinking to mitigate against high impact low probability or resilience events. Since the summit will be hosted in the west coast a specific topic of reliability and wildfire mitigation will also be covered. The event will include one track technical track (super session format) and not include breakout sessions. The presenters invited are practitioners who will discuss their organizations’ approaches to a more reliable and resilient grid.
