Puerto Rico - Grid reliability under pressure A widespread power outage occurred in Puerto Rico, impacting more than 340,000 customers due to the shutdown of two power plants. The outage affected the capital, San Juan, and adjoining municipalities. Luma Energy, which is responsible for transmission and distribution, and Genera PR, which operates power generation units, are under scrutiny for the outage. Puerto Rico's governor expressed disappointment, calling the situation unacceptable. The outage led the mayor of San Juan to declare a state of emergency. Many residents voiced concerns about the limited information shared and requested accountability, particularly in light of the ongoing grid rebuilding efforts after Hurricane Maria. #energyone #puertrico #powergrid #hurricane #electricpower #outage #gridreliability https://lnkd.in/ercti-US

I am sorry to hear such news about Puerto Rico, the electricity outage has been extended for a long time. And in 2017 September to October, Hurricane Maria landed causing a lot of loss even death. That is a crisis, but it's also an opportunity for both of us to address similar issues and take preventive measures. We currently have Lithium battery stock in the US, all certified by UL1973 and UL9540A. Do you have any thoughts on this? Note: The lithium batteries can draw and store power from the grid, generators, solar panels, and more, ready for use when needed—especially crucial during grid instability. Each battery has a storage capacity of 5120Wh, capable of powering household loads continuously. Are you interested in exploring this solution further?) #PuertoRico #poweroutageinpuertorico #

Why is locally-produced natural gas important for Pennsylvania and the surrounding region? Gas produced in the Marcellus Shale can reduce the impact of supply disruptions from Gulf sources, like Texas experienced in 2021 during winter storm Uri. When residents heat with natural gas from locally-produced sources instead of using electricity, the potential of brownouts/blackouts from excessive demand is reduced, too.

Many parts of the United States experience frequent heavy rainfall, prompting various industries to invest in commercial generators. Ensuring a continuous power supply and uninterrupted operations during adverse weather conditions is a wise business decision. However, a question arises: is it possible to operate a generator in the rain? It is imperative to comprehend the proper usage of generators in wet conditions to safeguard your investment and maintain optimal performance for an extended period.

Can you charge an EV when the power is out? (Or how about pumping gas?) This question is especially relevant for those affected by Hurricane Beryl, like the people of Houston, TX, where parts of the city were without power. Gas pumps require electricity (as do EV chargers) for their pumps to work! So when the power is out, both are down. That’s why it’s so impressive that Buc-ee’s had backup power generation to stay fully operational -- pumping gas and charging EVs! It was a literal shining beacon in an otherwise blackout part of the city (highlighted by a mile-long column of cars waiting to get in!) #EVs #Electrification #Beryl #Bucees #HoustonTX

ALERT: Winter weather is making its way downwards from Canada into the US, and it could have an impact on your winter fuel strategy. Mansfield does not foresee any direct impact on fuel operations at this time, but supply and operations personnel are working with local terminals and carriers to assess the situation.

Some parts of N+W Eu have already seen more than 3x that of a normal October, and with lots more rain around over the coming days, October 2023 is turning into a notably wet month for many places. In addition to high rainfall totals, and therefore filling reservoirs and rivers, the unsettled conditions are allowing for widely above normal winds too. #weatherforecast #energytrading #hydropower #renewableenergy #windpower #autumnweather

Hi Connections! Title : Hydro Power Plant The most common type of hydroelectric power plant is an impoundment facility. An impoundment facility, typically a large hydropower system, uses a dam to store river water in a reservoir. Water released from the reservoir flows through a turbine, spinning it, which in turn activates a generator to produce electricity. The water may be released to meet changing electricity needs or other needs, such as flood control, recreation, fish passage, and other environmental and water quality needs. #snsinstitutions #snsdesignthinkers #designthinking
