Just a few years ago, #utilities were still kicking the tires on #energystorage. Now, they want to own as much of the process as possible, including design, engineering, procurement, and O&M. This was a fun research project for DISTRIBUTECH International. I spoke with Puget Sound Energy's #DER engineer Chris Hilling, P.E. and Dominion Energy's Ellen Jackson, as well as battery suppliers John Zahurancik from Fluence and Martin Rheault from EVLO Energy storage, about this changing dynamic. The big takeaway? Utilities are building internal playbooks to streamline storage integration for a variety of use cases, and the battery boom is just beginning. https://lnkd.in/eGeDEuf6

CrowdStrike outage impacts DOE, utilities, and regulators. The trouble with the update issued by cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike and affecting computers running Microsoft Windows was not a security incident or cyberattack, according to CrowdStrike, which said a fix was on the way. http://ow.ly/nCk8105BmhC
