Renewable Energy Growth Opportunity

July 9, 2018

Renewables are expected to make up the majority of incremental capacity growth over the next decade, as well as being the primary replacement for coal and nuclear power generation over time. A robust electric grid requires multiple sources of power and we believe natural gas-powered generation complements the use of renewables and will retain a meaningful portion of overall market share for decades to come. In this white paper, we discuss the changing dynamics for wind and solar power, followed by our thoughts on natural gas demand going forward. The following chart shows the changing mix of U.S. power-generation capacity.

Positive Proof for Distributed Intelligence at the Grid Edge

whitePaper | October 14, 2022

The utility industry struggles to store and analyze the ocean of data recorded by state-of-the-art distribution devices. Performing some analytics locally—within the devices themselves—promises to unlock new operational value and cost effectiveness, and the first phases of testing needed to prove that theory are now complete. Laboratory investigations showed distributed intelligence (DI) applications far surpassed the capabilities of cloud-based analytics for three common use cases on the distribution grid; and field testing confirmed the results across thousands of customer meters, while also revealing other valuable, real-world applications for the data.

A SIMPLE STEP FOR CLEANER AIR TODAY

whitePaper | January 4, 2022

Higher temperatures. Longer and more intense wildfire and hurricane seasons. More frequent droughts. Less snowpack and melting glaciers. The signs of climate change are all around us. The chief cause is greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, including those from human activities like burning fossil fuels.

Consumer Protection And Empowerment For A Clean Energy Future

whitePaper | March 17, 2023

Putting consumers at the centre of the energy transition is vital to meet climate change and affordable, secure energy access goals in conjunction. This is now more important than ever, as consumers around the world face unprecedented price pressures generated by fossil fuel dependence and triggered by the turmoil resulting from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

The NYISO Interconnection Process

whitePaper | January 11, 2023

State and federal clean energy policies are driving an historic transition of the existing electric generating fleet in New York, including a dramatic increase in the development of clean energy projects. Mandates under the state’s Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA) require 70% renewable energy by 2030 and an emissions-free electric system by 2040. The Inflation Reduction Act, signed into law by President Biden in August 2022, makes $370 billion available in tax credits and incentives to speed the country’s transition to clean energy technology – the most aggressive climate related action ever taken by Congress.
