That need for balance is true of electric power grids, too. First, as countries everywhere move to decarbonize, the electrification of transportation, heating, and other sectors will cause electricity demand to soar. Packetized energy management (PEM) allows the power grid to flexibly handle a varying supply of renewable energy.
