THE ENERGY INTERVIEW
“ Renewables are critical in the journey to net zero ”
grid and make it smarter . This involves striking a better balance between large-scale power generation and local or distributed generation . By encouraging local generation , we can reduce grid stress . Battery energy storage systems ( BESS ) offer a cost-effective way to integrate renewables without needing to upgrade so much infrastructure . Simultaneously , we can embrace technology that helps us manage supply and demand , especially with more weather-dependent energy sources joining the mix .
Q . WHICH TECHNOLOGIES CAN BE ADVANTAGED TO PROMOTE EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE ELECTRIFICATION ?
» New technology will make the grid smarter and more efficient by going beyond storing surplus electricity . Data analytics lies at the heart of this transition . A smart network offers monitoring , control , load and outage management , automation , remote access , and maintenance .
