Overview

Please join E2 Midwest as we explore new technologies, the policy landscape for energy storage and the formation of a Chicago-area pilot for community electric vehicle charging stations. Batteries play a critical role in increasing clean energy from storing renewable energy to powering electric vehicles. With cutting edge programs at Argonne National Labs and the state legislature considering policies that support the development of energy storage, Illinois is at the center of harnessing battery technology to create greater economic opportunities.

George Crabtreee – Director, Joint Center for Energy Storage (JCESR)
Senator Don Harmon – 39th District of Illinois
Mark Nabong – Senior Attorney, Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC)
