ENTRUST Solutions Group’s Post

When will grid-enhancing technologies (#GETs) be ready for takeoff? In our latest blog post on Energy Transition Notes, Daniel Anastos, Luis C. Velasquez-Mansilla, and I write about GETs. As esoteric as the name might be to non-grid enthusiasts, GETs help solve several problems in our transmission grid. We focus on: 1. Problems in our transmission grid 2. Flavors of GETs we can get (😉) and how they can help 3. Example method to prioritize investment & deployment 4. Incentives alignment for utilities 5. Indicators to assess the inflection point A huge thank you to Hudson Gilmer at LineVision, Phil Giudice at FirstLight, Aaron Stoll, Charlie Ary, Ashley McGeary at Grid United, Anna Lafoyiannis at EPRI, and Erin O'Malley at Viridon for valuable insights!

U.S. power grid is under pressure (in regions like Georgia, Arizona, and Northern Virginia) as demand surges from AI and clean-tech industries!

How Emissions Are Measured: Gas Concentration vs. Emission Rate The U.S. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) proposed a rule in May that included significant measures to reduce #emissions from #pipelines and other #midstream infrastructure.

Digital Twins for Power Grids Came across this short but interesting video explaining how SP Group uses DT technology to better manage their power network #technology #digitaltwin #powergrid https://lnkd.in/gZN4eNnP

Exactly on target; and it’s not just the strengthening the transmission portion of the grid. Grid operations consist of generation, transmission and distribution. The US must work on all three…we need it done now. #nationalinfrastructurebank

The recent White House Summit on Grid Modernization brought together stakeholders to advance transmission technologies. The event underscored the urgent deployment of high-performance conductors, dynamic line ratings, and power flow control devices. Emphasizing the need to enhance capacity and alleviate congestion, this summit showcased critical steps towards a more efficient and robust grid system. #GridModernization #TransmissionTechnologies #EnergySector

How much longer will our existing infrastructure last if we were to move much more to distributed generation. Generating power where it’s consumed is much more efficient.

How is the reconstruction and transformation of #PuertoRico’s electric power system faring? Take a look at our update in the CNE Review. https://lnkd.in/eQ4BSDVA

FERC’s Order 1920 marks a pivotal moment in transmission planning policies, ushering in the first significant update in over a decade. This groundbreaking order seeks to revolutionize decision-making processes at regional and state levels by implementing standardized, long-term studies on power grid updates to better address consumer needs. Don't miss out on this opportunity to gain valuable insights from our panel of experts as they analyze and discuss the implications of the draft final rule.
