National Grid competition might not work, warns former commissioner of Electricity Network Former electricity network commissioner Nick Winser has urged caution over introducing competition into the delivery of transmission infrastructure, if it sets back efforts to promote long term relationships with the supply chain. He expressed concerns about opening up the grid to greater competition in the context of the growing pressure to secure capacity in the constrained global supply chain for transmission equipment, like cables. Last year, Nick Winser produced a report setting out recommendations for accelerating the rollout of electricity transmission infrastructure, which will be crucial to moving electricity generated from renewable sources to the places that need it. Nick’s report includes proposals to government on streamlining the consenting process for major schemes, and for a more strategic approach to planning the future of networks spatially. “We need transformational change in our electricity network to support the government’s ambitious offshore wind plans and to support decarbonised heating and electric vehicles. “But we cannot deliver that change at current speeds of delivery. Nick Winser’s report is an authoritative prescription for addressing this. “Government and Ofgem must continue their work to drive anticipatory investment and embed a more strategic and spatial approach to planning electricity networks. “We particularly welcome the recognition of the vital role of the independent system operator in providing a single version of the truth on network capacity, as well as the endorsement of the Commission’s recent recommendations on regular updates to National Policy Statements. “We look forward to government and Ofgem’s upcoming connections action plan, building on this important work. The Commission will also make recommendations on further actions to enable the necessary investment in electricity networks in the upcoming second National Infrastructure Assessment.” The Commission’s own recommendations on speeding up the consenting process for nationally significant infrastructure projects, referenced by Sir John and published in April 2023, called for National Policy Statements to be updated every five years as a legal requirement and clearer direct benefits for communities which host key infrastructure schemes. Government is currently considering its formal response to the Commission’s proposals. Source - Utility Week #idno #icp #nationgrid #infrastructure

U.S. DOE Unveils $2.2 Billion Investment To Modernize U.S. Power Grid And Boost Clean Energy In alignment with the Biden-Harris Administration’s Investing in America agenda, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has unveiled a historic $2.2 billion investment in the nation’s power grid. This funding, part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law’s Grid Resilience and Innovation Partnerships (GRIP) Program, supports eight major projects across 18 states. The initiative aims to enhance grid resilience against extreme weather, reduce costs for communities, and expand grid capacity to accommodate rising demands from manufacturing and data centers. This significant investment will drive nearly $10 billion in total public and private funding, bolstering the U.S. grid with nearly 13 gigawatts (GW) […] Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/dzuXpn7q #solarenergy #alternativeenergy #solarpv #pvsolar #photovoltaic #cleanenergy #cleantech #climatechange #renewableenergy #u.s.departmentofenergy #usa

Biden-Harris Administration Invests $1.5 Billion To Strengthen U.S. Power Grid And Boost Clean Energy Access The Biden-Harris Administration, through the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), has announced significant steps to enhance the country’s electricity grid and ensure affordable energy for Americans. In a key move, the DOE is investing $1.5 billion in four major transmission projects, aimed at improving grid reliability, reducing transmission congestion, and giving more people access to affordable clean energy. These projects, supported by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, will add nearly 1,000 miles of new transmission lines and create 7,100 MW of capacity across six U.S. states. The states benefiting from this investment are Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas.

The U.S. power grid is strong—but the increasing demand, electrification, and renewable energy means there’s work to be done. The U.S. government has already committed more than $30 billion to fortify our grid infrastructure, helping fund initiatives, installations, and technologies to ensure reliable electricity for future generations. And according to EPRI’s Andrew Phillips, advanced conductor technologies that avoid sag—such as carbon core conductors—are one such breakthrough. “Traditional conductors are rated to a specific temperature—traditionally, 90 to 100 degrees C,” he explains. “There’s an ACSS conductor that’s got a steel core that will go to 250 degrees —but it sags more easily. The nice thing about carbon fiber is you can design it so that it doesn’t expand as much as steel when it heats up, and therefore, doesn’t sag as much. Also, it’s light.” Learn more about how innovative technologies and strategies are building a more efficient, sustainable energy future in this new article from POWER magazine! https://lnkd.in/errRfkkS
