Nice story by Jeff St. John on #industrial applications of high-temperature #thermalbatteries. This one focuses on our friends at Rondo Energy and explores #venturefunding and U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) incentives that are helping drive the technology to scale. #thermalstorage #energystorage #decarbonization #electrification

What does the future of our energy landscape look like? 🔮 More #VirtualPowerPlants! In today’s article by Forbes, CPower’s CEO Michael Smith highlights why #VPPs are the # 1 transformative technology to balance the grid, reduce the need for polluting peaker plants and enable the #cleanenergy transition. https://ow.ly/q29C50SqgB1

This is a prime example of how innovative energy storage solutions can transform aging electricity networks, making them more resilient, sustainable, and future-ready. #EnergyStorage #NetZero #RenewableEnergy #BatteryTechnology #Sustainability #CleanEnergy #EnergyInnovation #GridStability #EnergyTransition #Decarbonization #ClimateAction #GreenEnergy #OntarioEnergy #SmartGrid #EnergyResilience

Transmission or Distribution Loss: When electricity is lost during the transmission or distribution process, it not only translates to wasted energy but also impacts the reliability of our power supply. Understanding and minimizing these losses is crucial for enhancing overall efficiency in our energy systems. How can we innovate to reduce transmission losses and optimize our energy networks for a sustainable future? Let's spark a discussion on this critical issue. #EnergyEfficiency #Innovation #Sustainability.

Wow, BNEF's recently released New Energy Outlook estimates that electrification will be the biggest #decarbonization pillar for net-zero industry in 2050. Looking at these major net zero studies over time, I'd say that the estimated share of #CO2 abatement through electrification is increasing relative to other pillars like CCUS. As awareness and commercialization of electrification technologies grows, it's clear that studies are picking up on its potential. I'm excited to be doing research on this important topic for a number of countries and industries, adding to the evidence on the potential of industrial electrification.

💡 Highlighting our white paper "Critical role of #dispatchablepower in securing a #sustainableenergy future" presented during the morning session by our Emeritus Member Jansohn Peter. Key insights: ✅ By 2030, Europe will require double the current flexibility resources, and five times more by 2050. ✅ Dispatchable power, such as hydrogen-ready turbines and clean thermal technologies, is essential for balancing supply-demand and providing grid services. ✅ Without increased policy support and investment in carbon-neutral technologies, the risk of losing critical flexible capacity will increase, threatening energy security. ❗❗ This paper calls for urgent policy changes and market incentives to secure dispatchable, low-carbon power for the future. 🧐 Do you agree? 💬 Drop us a message in the comments. #ETNOctoberWorkshop2024 #energytransition #dispatchablepower #sustainability #hydrogeneconomy #decarbonization #gridsecurity #cleanenergy
