The home electrical panel is an essential and often overlooked tool with the potential to help decarbonize homes. In the latest installment of Brattle’s Energy Leaders & Innovators Q&A series, Principal Ryan Hledik speaks with SPAN founder and CEO Arch Rao about his company’s smart panels, barriers to electrification, and more. https://bit.ly/3StsALm

Distributive energy programs are essential for GHG avoidance as well. I can install solar panels on my house and sell the power I don't use back to my utility. This can be a monetary benefit or CO2 emissions credit.

Useful summary of the plans for plans. The Strategic Spatial Energy Plan is due to be commissioned from NESO shortly, and while Beyond 2030 is being taken as a transitionary network plan, “… the first full Centralised Strategic Network Plan will be delivered by the end of 2027, taking the Strategic Spatial Energy Plan as a key input, and will set out the transmission network plan for onshore and offshore electricity, as well as gas and hydrogen transmission up to 2050…”

What is strategic planning, why does it matter and where does Ofgem sit in all of it? Read our blog to find out!

As demand for electricity grows, so should efforts to expand grid capabilities. Creative solutions like this one are good news for everyone! Interstate cooperation between utility operators will improve distribution and strength, especially in times of environmental crisis like the approaching wildfire season in California. #Electricity #GridStability #FutureOfEnergy #CaliforniaWildfire

This story from Power Grid by John Engel needs WAY more attention! This is a massive milestone and a crucial accomplishment demonstrating how when the right DERs are in place, demand-side management can save the grid! In Portland, Oregon, "customer actions reduced electricity demand by nearly 109 MW during peak demand hours on July 8 and 100 MW on July 9, according to PGE. That’s enough shifted electricity to power over 90,000 homes for four hours. On those days, PGE activated its entire portfolio of voluntary energy shifting programs, which include peak rebates, smart thermostat intervention, and managed electric vehicle charging."
