Over the past decade, state governments, local municipalities, and large corporations have increased momentum for the adoption of net zero carbon policies, and with the signing of the Inflation Reduction Act in August 2022 that will provide hundreds of billions of dollars of investment in clean energy, that net zero carbon future now looks more achievable. E3 has been at the forefront of analyzing possible decarbonization pathways across North America. While there are multiple potential pathways on the road to net zero, it will ultimately result in a fundamental shift over time from an era of dominated by fossil fuel generation resources to one dominated by renewables, energy storage, and demand-side resources. This will result in a major transformation in how electricity markets function.

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.

Globally, electric vehicle (EV) sales grew 80% in 2021 and companies like Toyota and Volkswagen announced $170 billion of investment into electrification. Besides eliminating exhaust emissions and tackling part of the 23% of global CO2 emissions contributed by the transportation sector, EVs also provide key flexibility to the grid as we transition to a greater share of Renewable Energy (RE) supply. However, despite this global push, EVs only accounted for 7.2% of global car sales in 2021. The electric revolution still has a long way to go.

In the National Energy and Climate Plan, NECP, Italy sets forward its roadmap how to meet the energy and climate targets set by the EU. Achieving these targets requires actions of all sectors in the society, increasing renewable energy in transport, heating, electricity etc. These targets include among others having 32% of final energy consumption of renewable origin and reducing CO2 emissions by 40% compared to 1990 levels by 2030.
