The Grid Currently almost no storage (JIT system) Delivery in much - - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

The Grid Currently almost no storage (JIT system) Delivery in much less than 0.1 s from production Not much control; source and sinks and resistance govern (distance doesnt matter much) Loss in transmission is only about 7% 1/5 of US power

The Grid Currently almost no storage (JIT system) Delivery in much less than 0.1 s from production Not much control; source and sinks and resistance govern (distance doesn’t matter much) Loss in transmission is only about 7% 1/5 of US power plants were build in the 1950’s All will need to be replaced in 30 years (2050)

By 2050 (30 years) every power plant in the US will need to be replaced by new plants. 2008 to 2015 wind increased by 300% solar increased by 2,000% The grid is rapidly changing

Variable generation: US 7% (but this is localized) Texas Wind is 9% Oregon Wind is 13% Iowa Wind is 30% of the grid September 2015 Price per megawatt in north Texas was $-0.64 (negative!!) The grid had too much power input due to wind US Military has microgrids for all US bases Same for most Universities Google, Microsoft, Citibank etc. The ”utility” is becoming just an operator of the grid and a handful of plants. With renewables storage becomes a main issue.

Your car is an under used resource Drive to work, 1 hour, drive home 1 hour 22 hours not used Could draw from the grid at night (in the suburb where there is excess energy) Add to the grid during day (in the city where it is most needed) Use the car as a portable energy source/sink 22 hours per day If you get free fuel and some money this becomes interesting

The grid will play a larger role in our lives Getting off the grid and having grid independence seems to be a growing issue after Sandy and other storms There are jobs in this sector but it is difficult to define where they are, nobody is an expert right now (that is a good thing for a job seeker) In the developing world there may be potential to build it right or to skip the gird altogether and leap frog to a new microgrid future based on alternative energy It is important to consider who is benefiting from technical advances, monitoring and control
