 sults to share from UCSD – I hope you can join!\nRajni Kant Bansal will 
 give a presentation:\nTitle:\nImpact of Storage Losses on Grid Capacity Ex
 pansion Modeling: A case study in the WECC and California region\n\nShort 
 Abstract:\nEnergy storage\, whether short-term (SDES) or long-term (LDES)\
 , is crucial to decarbonizing the electricity grid. While current capacity
  planning tools establish a benchmark level for future deployment\, they o
 ften use an ideal model that fails to account for losses\, which can resul
 t in unintended target levels. In this work\, we model the impact of stora
 ge losses\, such as self-discharge loss and capacity degradation\, in powe
 r systems planning. We use SWITCH WECC\, a capacity expansion model with a
  geographical resolution of 50 representative load zones corresponding to 
 the 11 states in the Western Interconnect region\, for various zero-emissi
 ons scenarios. Our analysis shows that capacity expansion modeling that do
 es not account for storage losses can overestimate the optimal energy capa
 city deployed by up to 70%.\nSpeaker Bio:\nRajni Kant Bansal works as a Po
 stdoctoral Researcher at the Center for Energy Research at the University 
 of California San Diego. He has a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering\, and an
  M.S.E in Applied Mathematics and Statistics from Johns Hopkins University
 . During his studies at JHU\, he also worked alongside the Grid Operations
  and Planning team at the Electric Power Research Institute. Apart from th
 is\, he completed his B.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering from the Indian In
 stitute of Technology Kanpur and has prior experience as a financial analy
 st at Credit Suisse Investment Bank.\n\n
