SUMMARY:NYPA AGILe Tour
DESCRIPTION:Join the AEE Capital Region Chapter for an exclusive tour of the New York Power Authority (NYPA) Advanced Grid Innovation Laboratory for Energy (AGILe) in Albany\, NY\, one of the most innovative energy technology facilities in the Northeast. \n\n\n\nThe NYPA AGILe Lab is at the forefront of grid modernization\, clean energy innovation\, and digital transformation in the power sector. This is a rare opportunity to get an inside look at the cutting-edge tools\, technologies\, and strategies NYPA is deploying to advance New York State’s ambitious clean energy goals. \n\n\n\nWhether you are an energy engineer\, sustainability professional\, facility manager\, or utility industry representative\, this tour promises to deliver valuable insights and spark meaningful conversations about the future of energy in our region. This event is only open to AEE members. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat does AGILe do?\n\n\n\nThe Advanced Grid Innovation Laboratory for Energy (AGILe) is a world-class electric power systems laboratory operated by the New York Power Authority (NYPA) at the NY CREATES Albany NanoTech Complex. Its primary function is to provide a real-time testing environment to modernize the electric grid and accelerate the transition to clean energy. \n\n\n\nCore Functions & Capabilities \n\n\n\nNational Resource: In early 2026\, AGILe was added to the U.S. Department of Energy’s Registry of Electric Grid Test Beds\, recognizing it as the only facility nationwide with full system-level functionality for multi-regional large-scale power grids.  \n\n\n\nDigital Twin of the NY Power Grid: AGILe hosts the first-ever comprehensive digital twin of the New York State electric grid\, allowing for the simulation of future scenarios and the testing of new technologies in a risk-free environment. \n\n\n\nDe-risking Technology: It enables utilities\, grid operators\, and technology developers to validate new products—such as battery storage\, EV charging infrastructure\, and offshore wind integration—before they are deployed in the field. \n\n\n\nCybersecurity Research: The lab serves as a hub for cybersecurity\, allowing experts to simulate cyber incidents and develop innovative mitigation technologies. \n\n\n\nGrid Reliability Testing: Experts use real-time simulations to assess the impacts of extreme weather events and high penetrations of renewable energy on the bulk power system to ensure long-term reliability. \n\n\n\nCheck in instructions will be shared with registered attendees. Registration will open on 4/24/26 at 7:00 AM. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nEvent Details \n\n\n\n\n📅 Date: Tuesday\, August 11\, 2026\n\n\n\n🕐 Time: 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM\n\n\n\n📍 Location: NYPA AGILe Lab\, Albany\, NY (exact address and parking details to follow upon registration)\n\n\n\n\nSpace is limited — register early to secure your spot.
