Summary: The PUD has installed the first two battery systems as part of a multi-year program aimed at transforming the marketplace and how utilities manage grid operations. These battery storage systems are the first to be built using the cutting-edge Modular Energy Storage Architecture (MESA). The first set of lithium batteries is located at a utility substation near the PUD’s operations center. A second system, a set of vanadium flow batteries, was installed in early 2017. The installations are designed to improve reliability and the integration of renewable energy sources, which are rapidly growing in the Pacific Northwest. The utility is managing its energy storage projects with an Energy Storage Optimizer (ESO), a software platform that runs in its control center and maximizes the economics of its projects by matching energy assets to the most valuable mix of options on a day-ahead, hour-ahead and real-time basis. Visit Requirements: The energy storage system is located in a substation. Attendees are required to wear hard hats (provided by SNOPUD) and hiking boot type shoes (closed toe with ankle support). There will be a safety briefing provided before entering the substation. Attendance is limited to 16 people. Please RSVP. Light refreshments will be provided prior to the tour. Speaker(s): Arturas Floria, Substation Engineer, Agenda: 1:00 pm – Welcome and Introductions1:15 pm – Presentation on energy storage at SnoPUD Electric Building2:00 pm – Drive to the energy storage site (5 minutes away) – participants will drive their own cars2:15 pm – Security briefing2:30 pm – Tour of Energy Storage System4:00 pm – Return to the Electric Building and adjourn Location: 2320 California Street Everett, Washington 98201

The Seattle Signal Processing Society (SeaSiPS) would like to welcome you to our inaugural event, where we will be honoring 2018 Flanagan Award recipient Mari Ostendorf for her outstanding contributions to speech signal processing research. Mari will then honor us with a talk on current research in the field, in particular some work that she is doing on context-aware language models and prosody detection.   With the market booming with NLP (Natural Language Processing) applications, speech signal processing is a very exciting field to be in right now. One obvious example is the ongoing competition for the best in-home personal assistant among the big four: Amazon, Apple, Google, and Microsoft. These giants are flooding job searches with ads for engineers with a background in speech and machine learning. Even if audio signal processing is not your area, now is an excellent time to familiarize yourself with the field to stay current with industry trends. This event is free for all to attend. We would like to track member participation however, so please don't forget to sign-in at the door. Speaker(s): Prof. Mari Ostendorf, Agenda: 5:30 pm  Reception  Networking and socializing for the first hour. Food and drink provided. Wine, cheese, hors d'oeuvres, soda.  6:30 pm-6:45pm  Brief chapter announcements and introduction 6:45pm-8:00 pm   Lecture by Mari Ostendorf, Q&A/Discussion Location: Room: 303 Bldg: Electrical Engineering Building (EEB) 185 W Stevens Way NE Seattle, Washington
