Small Power, Big Grid: Part 2 - DERs AND REGIONAL LOAD FORECASTING
The Emerging Relationship between Distributed Energy Resources and the Transmission System.
Small Power, Big Grid: Part 1
This series will focus on these questions in the area of transmission planning (regional load forecasting and solutions to identified grid needs), wholesale market design, and facilitation of utility business model reform.
Berkeley Lab Study
Continued Reductions in Wind Energy Costs
Experts anticipate cost reductions of 24%-30% by 2030 and 35%-41% by 2050, under a median or 'best guess' scenario, driven by bigger and more efficient turbines, lower capital and operating costs, and other advancements
Solar on Houses Needed for 2020 Target
In the last ten years, the installed global solar energy capacity has multiplied nearly 50 times. The cost of purchasing and installing a solar panel has decreased by 80 percent in five years and is still falling. The comparable cost of electricity generation has made solar energy the cheapest energy source today, from being the most expensive only six years ago. This is truly a green revolution.
Solarodo - New and Used Solar Equipment Marketplace
We want to use the experience we gained in Europe and create the platform with the biggest product variety in the US.
NREL Research Puts the Wind at an Industry's Back
NREL's ultimate goal in this testing is to foster the technological developments necessary for wider deployment of wind energy in the marketplace at the lowest cost possible.
U.S. ethanol plant capacity increases for third consecutive year
The majority of the 195 ethanol plants, and most of the U.S. fuel ethanol production capacity, are located in the Midwest region
Africa's Off-grid Solar Market Is Booming
Investors will need to understand the differences between on-grid and off-grid solar. And a long term proof of bankability of the off-grid solar sector is still needed.
Solar Energy Becoming More Predictable Thanks to Forecasting
Ultimately, the use of forecasting allowed the plant operator to send commitments in line with what is required by the grid operator.
New SMART Wind Roadmap Aims to Expand U.S. Wind Turbine Manufacturers' Reach
Through the consensus-based roadmapping process, the SMART Wind Consortium has linked together more than 2 dozen distributed wind energy equipment manufacturers
State of the Market: Wind Power Projects in Egypt
The broad range of wind energy project sizes and locations in Egypt demonstrates the increasing importance of the country as a renewable energy producer, supplier, modular manufacturer, skills trainer and investment opportunity.
Storage Solutions for Alternative Energy
One obstacle that is holding back adoption to renewables is the lack of any efficient means of storing this energy. However, some highly innovative solutions might be able to help solve the issue of preserving alternative energy for long-term use.
Southern States Lead Growth in Biomass Electricity Generation
Several states, especially those in the South Census region, have increased their electricity generation from biomass.
EIA's Annual Energy Outlook is a Projection, not a Prediction
EIA's approach to addressing the inherent uncertainty surrounding the country's energy future is to develop multiple cases that reflect different sets of internally consistent assumptions about key sources of uncertainty such as future world oil prices, macroeconomic growth, energy resources, technology costs, and policies.

Vecoplan - Planning and implementation of complete processing plants in refuse derived fuel production
In order to reduce the costs involved in the energy-intensive production of cement, many manufacturers are turning to refuse-derived fuels (RDF), considerably reducing the proportion of expensive primary fuels they would normally use. Solid fuels are being increasingly used - these might be used tyres, waste wood or mixtures of plastics, paper, composite materials and textiles. Vecoplan provides operators of cement plants with proven and robust components for conveying the material and separating iron and impurities, efficient receiving stations, storage systems and, of course, efficient shredders for an output in various qualities.
