Global Renewables Alliance CEO Bruce Douglas Introduces 24-7 Green Power Discussion with Industry Experts

Bruce Douglas, CEO of the Global Renewables Alliance, kicked off a session on renewable energy by introducing his relatively new organization which encompasses various renewable technologies such as wind, solar, geothermal, and hydropower. The alliance also includes long-duration energy storage and green hydrogen sectors. Highlighting their interest in continuous renewable energy supply (24-7), he outlined the structure of the session: individual presentations from each speaker followed by Q&A segments after each presentation. This would culminate in a panel discussion where audience participation is encouraged. The main focus of the session revolves around understanding 24-7 renewable power—its demand trends, consumption versus production case studies, and its potential for future applications. Bruce invited Pedro Oliveira from EDP Produção to be the first speaker; Pedro is noted as being head of innovation at his organization. The intent was to provide insights into how constant green power can be achieved and sustained over time through different innovative approaches within renewables.

Talk of session: Hybrid PV Power Plants II: Business Models for 24/7 Renewable Power Plant Supply

24/7 renewable power supply is a fairly new concept that ensures that the amount of green electricity companies require is met every hour of the day. 24/7 renewable power supply leads to increased transparency and trust in energy procurement, and it promotes the installation of new renewable power plants. Some world-leading IT companies have already opted for 24/7 green energy matching.

This session will discuss:

  • The concept of 24/7 renewable energy supply and energy matching '
  • 24/7 green power demand trends Real-time renewable 24/7 power production and consumption case studies
  • The potential of 24/7 RES matching (executive panel discussion)
