CEPSI 2014 Panel Session Program PS 1. Strategies for Sustainable Growth Tuesday, 28 October 2014 09:00-10:30 What responsible corporate action is needed for sustainable development? The electric power industry is faced with increasing demands to create and maintain more value for businesses and more prosperity for the society. What are the strategic plans for sustainable growth to be implemented by the electric power and energy industry leaders from economic, sociological, and environmental aspects? Micro topics  Sustainable development (new growth engines, job creation, etc.)  Public acceptance for the construction and operation of electric power facilities  Countermeasures for the growing energy demand in a sustainable manner - demand side management  Energy equity (energy access, affordability, and energy poverty reduction)  Energy waste management PS 2. Climate Change: Impact and Adaptation Tuesday, 28 October 2014 13:30-15:00 What is the impact of climate change on the power industry and how is it adapting? Risks in the electric power industry resulting from climate changes are escalating in terms of power infrastructure, energy mix, and renewable policies. The power industry needs to focus on technologies and measures for assessing, adapting to, and coping with the risks of climate change. Micro topics  Is this a threat or opportunity for renewable energy? – Pressure from the uncertainties of renewable policies and reduction of subsidies and the CO2 price fluctuation  Climate change adaptations by country – Policies and outlook  The optimal generation mix by fuel type  Energy efficient and environment friendly generation (green house gas reduction measures, CO2 emission reduction technology such as CCS, IGCC, and SNG) PS 3. Smart Grid Innovation Wednesday, 29 October 2014 09:00-10:30 What changes will smart grids make and how? Many countries have been developing and deploying smart grids to facilitate energy efficient and low carbon power system. However, many of them face various barriers in implementing the smart grid system. There should be many areas calling for global cooperation and partnerships to seek for the better solutions. Micro topics  Major challenges of smart grid deployment and solutions  Smart grid best practices and technology such as ESS, EV, and AMI  Development of efficient power grids  Interactive participation of consumers, costs, and benefits PS 4. Promising Electric Power Technologies Wednesday, 29 October 2014 13:30-15:00 What are the most promising electric power technologies to achieve green growth goals? The development of electric power technologies plays an extremely important role to realize the smarter and greener society and achieve green growth engines.
