    • Technology

Renewable energy is the future of our power systems, but relying on solar, wind, etc. will require a more reliable and resilient grid.

CEO Ramya Swaminathan joins Azeem Azhar to discuss why energy storage is so crucial to fighting climate change, how it could affect the economics of energy, and why the electric grid of the future will be more technologically diverse and complex than today’s.
