Corporate Address:
Portland, Oregon, United States
Consultant
I am an energy consultant in power generation, recently managing a multi-billion-dollar power plant development and construction portfolio for Portland General Electric, a vertically integrated utility based in Oregon. I have consulted for EPRI on storage and PV interconnections, Mitsubishi on hydrogen development and helped other companies with small modular reactor development.

Hydrogen fuel: Opportunities and challenges
Jaisen Mody - JSJS Consulting
Summary of Presentation
Driven by decarbonization goals, hydrogen fuel is gaining momentum around the world. As powerproducers deploy the use of curtailed power and demand grows for savings reductions in generatinghydrogen, electrolytic green hydrogen production is significantly increasing.Subsequently, hydrogen can be stored, transported, and used for an extensive range of purposes. As thismarket grows, we envision a wholesale trading market for hydrogen that will strongly benefit power aswell as industrial and transportation sectors.This presentation will include:• Opportunities with decarbonizing power as well as in other hard to decarbonize industries.• Challenges introducing hydrogen in gas turbines• Challenges introducing hydrogen in boilers• Transportation and benefits of using hydrogen for trucking and automobile industries• Using hydrogen for ammonia production and benefits to the agricultural industry• Challenges storing hydrogen for dispensing at stations• Benefits of using hydrogen for seasonal storage along with comparisons with battery storage• Challenges with new pipe construction along with the process of blending hydrogen in existingpipelines• A discussion of how to address issues of hydrogen embrittlement

How to effectively scale-up first of a kind technology
How to effectively scale-up first of a kind technology
Jacinto D. Duran Sanchez - CSI USA GROUP
Managing pioneering engineering projects comes with complex challenges. This discussion explores how to effectively handle change, cost, and schedule in these innovative endeavors. A key aspect of successful project management is aligning stakeholder expectations and requirements. Participants will learn how to set clear project objectives and performance indicators, promoting transparency and trust among stakeholders.Implementing a strong change control protocol is crucial for achieving engineering project success. A structured approach with engineering freezes at key points ensures project integrity and minimizes risks. By sharing our methodologies and knowledge, we aim to deepen understanding of the intricacies involved in successful technological project implementation.

Floating PV in U.S. Reservoirs: Regulatory, Environmental, & Economic Potential
Floating PV in U.S. Reservoirs: Analysis of resource, regulatory, environmental, and techno-economic potential
Mucun Sun - Idaho National Laboratory
Summary of Presentation
Floating solar photovoltaic (FPV) systems are an emerging technology where solar PV panels are placed on floating objects on top of a body of water as opposed to conventional land-based structures. The global FPV market size is expected to grow from $2.55 billion in 2021 to $10.09 billion in 2030. Unlike conventional land-based PV infrastructure, FPV present policymakers, developers, utilities, and financial firms with new opportunities and challenges. Because the FPV technology is not as mature as land-based PV, tools are not yet widely available to provide the foundational data and analysis necessary for wide scale adoption of FPV. Idaho National Laboratory and the National Renewable Energy, with funding support from the U.S. Department of Energy, are currently finalizes a suite of analysis reports and tools to provide decision makers with a better understanding the U.S. FPV resource potential, costs, environmental impacts, and regulatory pathways. This presentation will summarize the “AquaPV” Tool and associated reports covering the results of:•A geospatial resource assessment of FPV potential at federally managed United States Reservoirs and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Licensed hydropower facilities.•An environmental and regulatory pathway analysis•The techno-economic analysis of an FPV system co-located with an existing hydropower plant •The environmental modeling, along with the potential environmental implications of covering sections of a reservoir on water quality and ecology.
