What if our understanding of extreme wheather has to change when we think about power system operation?🧐 An interesting article based on a study from National Renewable Energy Laboratory and Sharply Focused LLC tackles this question. In a power grid dominated by renewables, heat waves with a lot of sun or windy winter cold snap may not be the biggest challenges…. A pretty average cloudy day with little wind may prove more difficult to handle… Do we have to rethink extreme operating conditions? Let me know what you think about it! #energytransition #gridstability

The net growth in hydrocarbon use in the US in 2022 was almost double the growth of wind + solar combined. When you hear ‘increasingly competitive wind/solar’ or ‘transitioning to a 100% renewable economy,’ be wary of The Science ignoring true science and reality.

Short vertical axis wind turbines like Wind Harvesters need strong winds at 15-100 feet (5-30m) above the ground for cost effective clean energy production. Where are these mid-level wind resources found? In this Q&A, Wind Harvest CEO Kevin Wolf explains some of the geographic features and principles of physics that result in strong mid-level wind resources. https://lnkd.in/gebgFgAc
Where are Good Wind Speeds for Renewable Energy Production Found Near the Ground?

CEO @ Energy Council of South Africa BSc Engineering | CA(SA) (Energy | Strategy | Net Zero | Infrastructure | Project Finance)
The Energy Council will start publishing a view of cumulative load shedding. With the significant escalation of new generation, largely wind and solar we are definitely seeing a decoupling of the direct correlation between EAF and stages of Load Shedding. To realise an end to load shedding, Eskom must stabilise the decline in EAF and investment growth in new generation must continue.
