Integrating distributed energy resources (DERs) such as solar, wind, batteries, and electric vehicles into the power grid is an important part of the energy transition. Utilities and transmission system operators know they need more flexibility when it comes to power generation and delivery,

Steps engineers can take to help mitigate power outage impacts. Paths to PLC redundancy. Paths to PAC redundancy. How can a dual Ethernet ring help with resilience? Power outages are becoming more frequent in the U.S. One research group states that from ...

MacLean Power Systems (“MPS”) and Power Grid Components (“PGC”), two leading manufacturers of engineered components and solutions for electrical transmission, distribution, substation and communication infrastructure, announced today the signing of ...

This story originally appeared on Vox and is part of the Climate Desk collaboration. The tricky thing about generating electricity is that for the most part, you pretty much have to use it or lose it. Making sure there are always enough generators spooled ...

Modernizing the electric grid involves more than upgrading control systems with sophisticated software—it requires embedding sensors and automated controls across the entire system. It’s not only the digital brains that manage the network but also the ...

Distributed energy resources are advancing the cause of a more resilient and reliable power supply for utilities, homes and businesses, and more. Distributed energy resources (DERs) have become a major part of the power generation landscape, particularly ...

The modern United States runs on an invisible machine of wires, transformers, data centers, and control rooms. If that machine failed all at once, life would not simply get less convenient, it would reorganize around scarcity,
