The United States is on the precipice of a monumental shift in its energy dynamics, with an increased thirst for electricity and a decisive pivot towards renewable energy sources. As the nation grapples with this dual challenge, artificial intelligence (AI) emerges as a beacon of innovation,
As summer approaches, concerns are growing about the reliability of the United States' power grid. The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) recently released its 2024 Summer Reliability Assessment, sounding an alarm for several regions across the country. According to the
As we lean into renewable energies to combat environmental issues, maintaining a stable power grid has become a key issue. Renewable sources such as solar and wind are inherently unpredictable, often leading to a supply-demand imbalance that threatens grid stability. To combat this, Demand Response
The blend of technology with critical infrastructure has led to both advancements and heightened risks. The U.S., once at the forefront of tech manufacturing, now often leans on foreign-made components. Notably, Chinese-produced storage batteries, which power the U.S. grid, provide cost benefits
The U.S. Department of Energy has taken a significant stride toward sustainability by implementing new energy efficiency standards for distribution transformers – key components in the electricity grid. This move not only aims to reduce carbon emissions but also to enhance the dependability of the p
Demand Response (DR) stands out as a key tool in bolstering energy grid stability and supporting the shift toward sustainable energy management. As we face the dual challenge of meeting energy needs and reducing environmental impact, DR offers a solution by encouraging adjustments in consumption
