Chinese Renewables: Grid Integration and Financing Workshop at CREC

Originally posted on AOL Energy

Although China's GDP growth appears to have cooled a bit in recent quarters, the country is still growing at a healthy clip and working hard to supply the energy required to power that growth.

Given its heavy reliance on coal for power generation - which is expected to continue increasing - China is getting serious about renewable energy for environmental reasons and simply because it will need an "all of the above" energy strategy to keep its factories running and its cities lit.

The Chinese Renewables: Grid Integration and Financing Workshop will feature two expert panels that will deal with practical issues associated with adding significant renewable energy capacity; Panel 1 - Plugging in Renewables: Grid Integration and Panel 2 - Financing Renewables: The View from the US and China.
