What separates the Italian major from the likes of Repsol and BP with comparable commitments is that ENI has pledged to rein in Scope 3 emissions as well--or emissions generated by ENI’s supply chain partners and end-users. Further, natural gas can be used to keep the power grid stable as solar and wind power fluctuate.

Bad things happen when demand outstrips supply. We learned that lesson too well at the start of the pandemic, when demand for toilet paper, disinfecting wipes, masks, and ventilators outstripped the available supply. Clearly, balancing the supply and demand of goods is critical for a stable, normal, functional society.

In addition, despite the rigorous development of renewables, carbon dioxide emissions are increasing, because the energy mix increasingly includes coal-fired power plants that emit large quantities of CO 2 to compensate for weather-related fluctuations in power generation from renewables and the closing of nuclear plants.

And while coal plants still supplied over half of Australia’s power in 2021, change is afoot. The other glimmer of reality is a project in Gladstone to build one of the world’s largest electrolyzer-manufacturing plants, which promises to provide a local source of equipment amid ongoing chaos in global supply chains.

A newly released report financed by the World Bank and prepared by consultancy PRTM analyzes China’s New Energy Vehicles Program, as well as the Ten Cities, Thousand Vehicles Program, in the context of these megatrends and concludes that the overall value chain shift could favor China from both a technological and supply chain perspective.

Jenkins has also helped push Congress to think more seriously about the power grid, releasing a report last year that showed that much of the 43 percent emissions reduction expected by 2030 would be squandered if the United States doesn’t double the pace of transmission upgrades. power-grid transmission.

To compensate for the increased amounts of these inherently–variable sources of electricity, the power grid requires additional flexibility to manage fluctuations in generation. As an alternative, electricity demand can be partially managed by modulating the charging rate of PEVs—for example, following variations in wind supply.

It’s very similar to the infrastructure for electric cars because the idea, ultimately, for electric cars is that you also are revamping your grid to facilitate, whatchamacallit, intermittent renewable energy sources, like wind and solar, because having an electric car that runs off a coal-fired power plant is defeating the purpose, essentially.

The winds had barely died down when electric-power specialists and others began calling for a radical overhaul of Puerto Rico’s electricity networks, one that would emphasize renewable energy, distributed generation, and, critically, microgrids. A microgrid is like a miniaturized, tightly controlled version of a power grid.

Furthermore, subsea and underground HVDC cables increasingly look like the most viable way to push added wind power across congested national grids and densely populated landscapes.

The vision is fuelled by the fear of climate change and the need to find green alternatives to dirty coal, unpopular nuclear power and unreliable gas imports from Russia. Electric cars in the garages would double as battery packs for when energy supplies are scarce. Cheers — Al Louard 11. The elegance of that is wonderful.
