Transmission Planning for a High Renewable Energy Future

Ammonia is an essential global commodity mainly used for nitrogen fertilizers. Ammonia is also emerging as a zero-carbon fuel for stationary power generation, as a hydrogen carrier for international trade of carbon-free energy, and as the backbone fuel for the decarbonisation of the international shipping sector. Today, however, ammonia is produced almost exclusively from fossil fuels, causing approximately 1% of total GHG emissions, representing around 20% of industrial natural gas demand and 5% of industrial coal demand.

This webinar was held on 29 January 2015 in order to disseminate the findings from the 2015 IEA/NEA Technology Roadmap: Nuclear Energy. Prepared jointly by the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) and the International Energy Agency (IEA), this Roadmap outlines the current status of nuclear technology development and the need for additional R&D to address increased safety requirements and improved economics.

Many in the solar industry feel that overbuilding, or designing a photovoltaic array with a DC capacity greater than the AC rating, is not feasible or even detrimental due to inverter clipping. Recently, several top inverter manufacturers have introduced products that were designed to be overbuilt. Why is this? It could well be in response to project economics and / or capacity caps in certain locales. In this webinar we will explore the benefits and obstacles to overbuilding, more specifically the desired balance of productivity versus demand, and the cost basis in terms of kWh delivered.
