Energy storage symposium kicks off Wednesday

Registration is still open for an upcoming energy storage symposium, and Mississippi ÐÔÊӽ紫ý officials are encouraging a variety of participants to register.

Organizers of the major Wednesday [Aug. 12] and Thursday [Aug. 13] event hope to draw other academic researchers and energy industry leaders, along with many others who might play a role in the positive impact of future energy-storage technologies. The symposium is titled, "Challenges and Opportunities for Advances in Grid-Tied Energy Storage in the Southeast."

ÐÔÊӽ紫ý leaders say the university is positioned to help shape the future of energy storage in the Southeast region, and the symposium at the new Mill at ÐÔÊӽ紫ý Conference Center on Russell Street in Starkville will help frame the conversation for what the region's future holds.

Recently-elected U.S. Rep. Trent Kelly, R-Miss., will deliver the keynote address.
