DESCRIPTION:In order to decarbonize\, states must both increase clean energ
 y generation and work to fully electrify end-uses as quickly as possible. 
 At the same time\, adding space heating\, EV\, and other loads to an incre
 asingly renewables-centered grid runs the risk of making current load-shap
 e challenges worse.\n\nIn this webinar\, Recurve CEO Matt Golden explains 
 how FLEXmarket Virtual Power Plants can help solve this problem by integra
 ting energy efficiency\, demand response\, and other behind-the-meter dema
 nd flexibility to reduce and shift peak loads by paying aggregators for de
 livered grid value.\n\nMatt will describe how California has recently embr
 aced this model to address its summer reliability emergency by allocating 
 $150 million to FLEXmarket Market Access Programs for 2022-23\, and how th
 e same approach can be applied to other jurisdictions.\n\nCo-sponsored by:
