Availability and Redundancy

  • Power on Demand by a Mix of Fluctuating and Balancing Sources
  • Increased Number of Non-Correlated Energy Sources
  • Increased Number and Reduced Average Size of Power Plants
  • Increased Number of Supply Regions
  • Additional HVDC Grid Infrastructure for Long-Distance Transfer
  • Domestic Sources Dominate the Electricity Mix
  • Non-depletable Sources Dominate the Electricity Mix
