Forward Planning: Pivoting Grid Management from Reactive to Proactive

A key risk to grid resilience is the potential for infrastructure improvements to be outpaced by technological advancement, rendering them insufficient at the point of delivery. 

This in turn means the issue of curtailment is never adequately addressed, and the full potential of renewables is never realized. BESS is one of the best tools against curtailment, but even the most advanced battery technology cannot completely circumnavigate a poorly maintained grid. 

How can we ensure that the grid is keeping up with the scale and speed of renewable energy deployment, and even get out ahead of future demands to create a more proactive, resilient grid?
