Advanced Energy’s Post

Who would have thought that we might be paid for having our cars contribute to the security of GB electricity supply? 🚘 🔌 It's amazing to see Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) being formally considered as a new technology to participate in the Capacity Market. This will go one step further to improving the business case and unlocking the full value of domestic energy flexibility. This follows on from great innovations earlier this year with EV chargers being accepted into the Capacity Market without relying on smart meter data. Exciting times ahead. https://lnkd.in/en4expka #EVs #V2G

"Scotty we need more power!" For those of use old enough to remember Star Trek TOS (and if you don't know what that is I'll wait for you to visit the wikipedias...) this phrase is burned indelibly into our brains. Invariably some nefarious force was holding the Enterprise against its will, or the ship was trying to outrun a baddie, or an incoming energy bolt threatened the integrity of the hull, and always the solution was "more power". The world we live in today is quite different. Not to say that the need for compute power has reduced, in fact quite the opposite given the enormous computational requirements of modern AI and HPC workloads. But that "power" must now be weighed against the power (energy) required to use it. In AI it's no longer about TOPS, it's about TOPS/W. And a laptop that dramatically outperformed its competitors but had only a 30 minute battery life would be considered fairly useless. So when the power (energy) requirements of datacenters start to be measured as a percentage of global energy consumption it's easy to see why managing and reducing power (energy) is a critical part of modern designs. Enter the Movellus Aeonic Power product family. By integrating the power supply for components of an SoC the power (energy) can be made more localized, smarter, more efficient, and the overall demand for energy can be reduced significantly. So rather than running all of your compute cores or AI acceleration clusters full tilt when only a few are needed, you can now modulate power at the core or block or cluster level to reduce the energy to precisely what is needed and no more, and this fine grained power control can yield immediate benefits. Advanced power savings like this were once attainable only by the largest and most advanced teams on the planet, but the field has been leveled. If you want to know more just send me a note, or come visit us at DAC 2024. Or just keep burning more energy than you have to, reducing your competitiveness and decreasing reliability, that's an option too... #AI #PowerDelivery #DAC2024

A 75-AH battery is characterised by its ability to discharge 75 ampere-hours of current over one hour, symbolising a significant energy reserve for various applications. This specification underlines the battery’s aptitude for delivering a sustained energy supply, a feature that renders it indispensable for a host of devices necessitating uninterrupted power. Such a battery finds its utility in vehicular operation, where the demand for consistent electrical supply is paramount, and in powering an array of electronic apparatuses that benefit from a persistent energy source. https://lnkd.in/dms32CA4

The intrinsically safe 5G radio IS440.1 for use in zone 1/21 is similar to conventional radios in terms of handling but utilises PoC communication via public or campus networks (4G or 5G) or Wi-Fi®. It can be seamlessly coupled with classic analogue and DMR devices for group communication via a gateway.

I may be biased, but this webinar comes highly recommended. This is the future of energy.

📣 ACER will decide on amending the #electricity single day-ahead coupling products methodology. ✔️ On 26 April 2024, ACER received a proposal from all Nominated Electricity Market Operators (#NEMOs) to amend the single day-ahead coupling products #methodology. What is the methodology about? 🔎 The single day-ahead coupling (#SDAC) products methodology is defined by the Capacity Allocation and Congestion Management (#CACM) Regulation. The methodology lists all products that are eligible for inclusion within the #EU single day-ahead coupling. Why amend the methodology? 📑 Every two years, all NEMOs are required to consult #MarketParticipants, as well as all Transmission System Operators (#TSOs) and #RegulatoryAuthorities to ensure that the current SDAC products available in the market: 📌 reflect the real needs of #MarketParticipants, 📌 take due account of #OperationalSecurity, and 📌 comply with the objectives of the CACM Regulation. If the consultation highlights the need to amend the list of products, NEMOs shall submit an amendment proposal to ACER, specifying which products should be included in the #SDAC. At the beginning of 2023, NEMOs initiated a new public consultation to assess the need to amend the latest version of the SDAC products methodology (approved by ACER in December 2020). Following this process, NEMOs are now proposing an amendment to enable the implementation of the 15-minute Market Time Unit (MTU) products into the single day-ahead coupling, which is expected in January 2025. This is deemed necessary to comply with the provisions of the #EUElectricityRegulation and to remove entry barriers for market participants trading 15-minute products. This will allow them to buy and sell #electricity for each 15 minutes during the day, enhancing market #flexibility. What are the next steps? 📍 ACER expects to decide by September 2024.

Qorvo, Inc.'s UF4SC120023B7S is a 1200 V SiC FET based on a unique ‘cascode’ circuit configuration, in which a normally-on SiC JFET is co-packaged with a Si #MOSFET to produce a normally-off SiC FET device. The device’s standard gate-drive characteristics allow for a true “drop-in replacement” to Si IGBTs, Si FETs, SiC MOSFETs, or Si super-junction devices. Ideal for applications such as EV Charging, PV Inverters, and Switch mode power supplies. Learn more: https://ow.ly/NIMm50Qp0LX #evcharging
