The whitepaper provides some helpful information regarding the expected application of the Critical Mineral Requirement and the Battery Component Requirement. For instance, the whitepaper provides some useful clarifying information such as stating that “critical minerals” for purposes of section 30D refers to the applicable critical minerals defined in the Section 45X (the advanced manufacturing production tax credit) and identifying what items are included as battery components.

To address climate change, countries around the world have set a goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. This presents a challenge for the IT industry, because with the dizzying progress of the information society, power consumption of data centers is expected to increase around 850 times by 2050. As a result of these targets, the index of CO2 emission has begun to be adopted as an evaluation point of IT systems.

Decarbonization coupled with the rise of renewables and government mandates have put pressure on utilities to diversify their energy sources. As federal investments in renewable infrastructure increase and the dynamics in energy market policies change, utilities are poised to incorporate distributed energy resources (DERs) onto their grids like never before. The combination of Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) orders 841 and 2222 and the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) standards 1547 (2018) and 2030 (2011) stand as powerful enablers to create smart infrastructure to better balance and manage the grid of the future.

In the United States, commercial-scale offshore wind energy deployment is at an early stage with only 42 megawatts (MW) generating power; however, the domestic industry is poised for an exponential increase in new installations after the first large commercial projects advanced to the construction phase in 2021–2022. Over the past 20 years, offshore wind energy got a head start outside the United States with the help of coordinated European offshore wind energy incentives.

A critical question facing facility and plant operators of large energy usage manufacturers is whether the same level of local community resilience provided by diesel backup generators can be achieved through economical microgrid alternatives that are more consistent with clean energy goals. In this report from Enchanted Rock, The Brattle Group examines detailed data comparing the feasibility, economics, and GHG emissions of several alternative microgrid systems commonly considered for resilience purposes.
