All Aboard: Getting Community Buy-In for New BESS Projects
With so many projects hitting loggerheads when faced with permitting in communities and protected lands, and a narrative that pits progress against environment, developers need more than ever to know how to navigate public relations. This session brings together communications and public liaison specialists to share what works and what doesn’t.

Closing Remarks
Grid Redundancy: BESS as a Distributed Contingency Plan
As curtailment grows, BESS is no longer a nice to have, and this is being reflected in new legislation requiring BESS inclusion. Major events like the 2025 blackout further highlight the role that battery storage can play in providing redundancy to energy infrastructure. What market opportunities are there for battery operators to provide redundancy services to municipalities and ensure continued […]
Beyond Solar: Energy Storage for Hydro, Thermal, and Other Energy Sources
While the majority of energy storage projects are attached to solar installations, there are plenty of opportunities for storage co-location with other energy sources. We look to the Colombian and Peruvian markets for insights on why developers and investors should be looking at other applications, and how best to break into these markets.
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 […]

New Horizons: Unlocking the Potential of the Mexican Market
Mexico’s proactive new regulations requiring solar and wind power plants to have BESS equivalent to 30% of their capacity and goals of adding 574MW of storage by 2028 positions it as a blossoming market for developers. Hear from key players about the best ways to take advantage of this opportunity and friendly regulatory environment.
Catching Up to Capacity: How Can Grid and Ancillary Services Develop to Make Up the Difference
As more BESS is deployed, capacity payments are set to decrease, leaving asset owners wondering where they can turn to make up the difference. Explore how governments can support the creation of revenue stacks and new markets to shore up income for BESS projects.
