The California Energy Commission will conduct a workshop to discuss renewable integration and the flexibility of California’s electricity system.

"Integrating large quantities of renewable generation, much of it solar, will require an increasingly resilient electricity system. In the near-term, this means a flexible fleet of natural gas-fired generators and increasing regionalization of renewable and other zero-carbon energy procurement. Over the longer term, it will require the increased deployment of existing clean technologies, lower costs for maturing technologies, such as plug-in hybrid and battery electric vehicles and multi-hour battery storage, and advancements in such technologies as biofuel and hydrogen production."
