Physicist Ramon Mendez Galain led Uruguay to energy independence. Continue reading to learn how the nation was able to switch to renewable energy sources.
The Energy Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) has earned its stripes in the energy storage market, sustaining around 3,500 MW of energy storage capacity, one of the most substantial in the nation. Traditionally, energy storage projects within ERCOT have been indispensable in delivering fast ramping ancillary services, such as Frequency Regulation and Responsive Reserve Services (RRS) and exploiting energy arbitrage opportunities between off-peak and peak price intervals.
When the bioengineered E. coli was exposed to a sample of brewery wastewater, the bacteria gobbled it up in over 50 hours, showing that the system could potentially enable energy production alongside simultaneous organic waste processing. Read to learn more.
Currently, 79% of energy production in the United States comes from fossil fuels. In such a short amount of time - just over 10 years - changing the energy landscape can seem like an impossible goal. Luckily, there are many ways to start making progress. Solar power, wind power, and nuclear power are all renewable energy options, but experts are vocal about one hurdle that will require some work: long-term energy storage.
Igor Vladimirovich Iurchenko, a power engineer, shares his own opinion on the measures being taken in the USA to develop alternative wind and solar energy. He presented a detailed report on this topic at the end of April 2023 during the international conference II Research Forum 2023.
