This study evaluates a variety of scenarios that achieve a 100% clean electricity system (defined as zero net greenhouse gas emissions) in 2035 that could put the United States on a path to economywide net-zero emissions by 2050. These scenarios focus primarily on the supply of clean electricity, including technical requirements, challenges, and benefit and cost implications. The study results highlight multiple pathways to 100% clean electricity in which benefits exceed costs. The study does not comprehensively evaluate all options to achieve 100% clean electricity, and it focuses largely on supply-side options.

The energy transition is very high on the agenda of Europe’s ports. Being at the same time important economic players and mission driven entities, ports want to be a partner in decarbonising both port activities and the supply chain. Beyond that, ports can also contribute positively to a sustainable economy as clean energy hubs. While the core business of Europe’s ports remains to connect maritime and hinterland transport for goods and passengers in their function as crucial nodes in the supply chain, ports can play an instrumental role in Europe’s new energy landscape. Many ports have already taken concrete steps in that direction. Many others are exploring opportunities. The possibilities are very diverse, so are the ports

Bord na Móna is an Irish, semi-state climate solutions company helping lead Ireland towards a climate neutral future. Bord na Móna has been serving communities for over 90 years, always rising to meet the needs of the day. It was founded in 1934 as The Turf Development Board to enhance national energy security through peat harvesting and became Bord na Móna in 1946. Today, we have radically changed our approach to face an even greater challenge: climate change. We have ended peat harvesting and now our focus is developing climate solutions in renewable energy, sustainable waste management, carbon storage and biodiversity conservation.

As rising numbers of inverter-based resources (IBRs) are deployed in power systems around the world, their role on the grid is changing and the services needed from them have evolved. In order to maintain grid stability and reliability, IBRs need to provide some of the services currently (or formerly) provided by synchronous generators. Interconnection standards already include requirements for IBRs to have the capability to provide some of these services—such as frequency and voltage support—and the procurement and deployment of the services can be implemented either as mandatory interconnection requirements or as market products

As more renewable energy sources and battery storage units are specified and incorporated into power systems, consultant specifying engineers are faced with many challenges which could impact the overall design and performance of these solutions. This paper outlines and addresses some of these challenges to aid in the system design, explains some common components found in microgrids, and discusses the value of an advanced microgrid controller for system operation

The Dominican Republic is considered a leader in energy and policy in the Caribbean. At the end of 2018 the Dominican Republic approved a Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) Action Plan to reaffirm the countries pledge to maintain the targets set by the Paris Climate Agreement. This being one of the actions showing the Island nation’s commitment to reducing emissions and increasing the amount of renewable energy in their power system.
