As more power stations adopted the clocks, the frequency regulation allowed them to share electricity and create an interconnected power grid. In Warren’s own telling of the story , his first attempt at an electric chronometer was a crude motor that connected the gears of a clock to the Boston Edison electrical system.

That need for balance is true of electric power grids, too. Spiking demand for electric heat collided with supply problems created by frozen natural-gas equipment and below-average wind-power production. Packetized energy management (PEM) allows the power grid to flexibly handle a varying supply of renewable energy.

BREAKERS projects will develop DC devices that prevent electric arcing, a safety hazard, while handling large amounts of power and voltage. Combined with a novel transient commutation current injector, this switch will transfer power to a separate solid-state device, interrupting the current in event of a fault.
