This duck doesn’t quack: he tells us dispatchable power is the key to the energy transition. Although first described in California 16 years ago, the duck curve is now seen in countless worldwide markets with advanced renewable buildouts, which include Texas, Germany, Australia, and beyond. It shows hourly net demand rise at the morning tail while solar ramps up, dip at the midday belly when solar peaks, and surge at the evening neck when solar ramps off. Fast-start, dispatchable technology provides an efficient, economical answer to this demand swing anywhere.

The benefits of solar technology are that it is highly sustainable and reliable. Solar technology uses light and heat from the sun, which is an endless source of renewable energy that does not run out or deplete like fossil fuels. As long as the sun is around, we can use solar technology to get electricity or heat. Solar technology is also not affected by fluctuating fuel prices or supply disruptions because it does not require any external input or support. Solar technology is also durable and stable, typically lasting over 20 years and requiring minimal maintenance and repairs. Therefore, using solar technology allows us to enjoy longer-lasting and more secure energy services. #energy #services #solar #technology

Solar power supply technology is crucial for a #sustainable future. Unlike fossil fuels, solar energy is a renewable resource that produces clean electricity without harmful emissions. This helps combat climate change and reduces our dependence on finite resources. Furthermore, #solar power can be harnessed in both large-scale power plants and individual homes, offering a path towards energy independence and potentially lower electricity bills. As solar technology continues to develop and become more affordable, it has the potential to revolutionize the way we power our world. Our Solid State Instruments SPS Solar Supply options provide a turn-key solution and include everything you need to implement a solar power supply. From 10 to 160 watts, an SSI SPS provides a power source remote telemetry when a 120VAC or 12VDC power supply is not be available or when power by a #renewable power source is desirable.
