In less than a week, CAISO saw two records for wind and solar penetration, and on May 16 … Continue reading CAISO: Renewables served 42% of #California demand on May 16, setting record→
California electricity mix in 2017 has involved more renewables, less natural gas So far in 2017, increased hydroelectric generation and solar power generation in California have contributed to lower natural gas-fired power generation in the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) region, the electric system operator for much of the state. In a late April update … Continue reading #California electricity mix in 2017 has involved more renewables, less natural gas→
Renewable groups: our products boost electric grid reliability, security and diversity “But what happens when the wind doesn’t blow or the sun doesn’t shine?” Four renewable energy groups, including AWEA, sent research to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) yesterday tackling exactly that question. The short answer: grid operators continue doing what they’ve always done: … Continue reading Renewable groups: our products boost electric grid reliability, security and diversity→
EIA: Natural gas, renewables squeeze nuclear capacity Nuclear energy is reliable and its generation produces no carbon emissions, but EIA says the long-term outlook for the industry is dim. The plants “make up a disproportionately large share of generation compared with their share of electricity generating capacity,” EIA said in a research note. As more … Continue reading EIA : Natural gas, renewables squeeze nuclear capacity→
