Navigating the Grid’s Perfect Storm: A Webinar with Andy Sun

Renewable-generation capacity is growing around the world, due to falling costs for renewable technology, concern about climate change, and an acknowledgement that renewables can contribute to energy security. However, a consensus has emerged that upgrading power grids around the world is key to fully utilizing this growing capacity. Andy Sun, a global expert on power systems and a professor at MIT, has written a paper for the Harvard Project on Climate Agreements, in collaboration with the Enel Foundation, that explores this challenge. The paper is titled “Navigating the Grid’s Perfect Storm: Building a Resilient and Reliable Power System.”

Professor Sun conducted a webinar on December 10, 2025, elaborating on his paper. His presentation may be downloaded by clicking the red button above on this page.
