The transition to all-electric everything would require an increase in electric generation to approximately 13,000 TWH from a storage supported predominantly intermittent generation fleet of approximately 6,000 GW with a capacity factor of approximately 30%, depending on the mix of wind and solar in the generation fleet.

For 20 years, US electrical power policy has been dominated by efforts to try to “mitigate” global warming, believed to be caused by human greenhouse gas emissions.

Iron-air batteries use rusting as their central technology. In an iron-air battery, iron, water and air are the components. The iron rusts to discharge power and the rusting is reversed to charge the battery.

The plan sets out how the UK is going to meet its strategy for cutting greenhouse gas emissions to net zero in order to achieve its own legally binding commitments to curb global warming.

Nuclear energy is a controversial issue in Italy where nuclear-fired power plants were banned after Italians voted in a 2011 referendum against a law for a national nuclear programme.

Over 30 years of shipments, these updated standards are expected to save Americans $124 billion on their energy bills and reduce 332 million metric tons of dangerous carbon dioxide emissions—equivalent to the combined annual emissions of nearly 43 million homes.

Climate anxiety has become more prevalent in recent years as evidence of the ramifications of global warming come to light and many people are looking for ways to reduce their dependence on fossil fuels.

China has the world’s largest nuclear fleet and aims to produce 10% of its electricity from nuclear power by 2035 and 18% by 2060 to enhance energy security and advance decarbonisation goals.

As solar and storage costs continue to decrease, at what point will having stand-alone power for customers of all types be a reality? What about microgrids that can use fuel cells and emerging green or even blue hydrogen technologies.

Factors in the Energy Utility Grid’s growth involve two facets of the Energy Industry, technology and energy consumer populations. Technology developments successfully applied to the Energy Utility Grid to expand efficiency, reliability, and stability include AI, SMART Grid platforms, and DERs.
