The energy sector is shifting to sustainable and green resources; as a result, the share of renewables in the power generation mix is rising. However, this presents another challenge for the power industry; renewable sources are intermittent, which pressurizes the power transmission and distribution (T&D) industry to maintain power supply in line w...

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has caused significant disruption to global energy markets. Europe has felt the biggest impact as a significant buyer of oil, and particularly gas, from Russia. In fact, Russia accounted for 35.5% of Europe’s gas supply in 2021. As the volume of gas coming from Russia has fallen, Europe has been scrambling to secure sup...

An MG is an energy system consisting of a group of interconnected loads, distributed energy resources, consumers, and optional storage that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid. A VPP is a virtual network that is dependent on software systems to connect remotely and automate dispatch of power generation. The fine line that ...

Floating offshore wind technology holds the potential to unlock vast wind resources in deep waters not accessible by traditional fixed-bottom offshore wind farms. However, to further promote the adoption of large-scale floating offshore wind farms, several challenges must be addressed. These farms require significant upfront investments in research...

The world is undergoing a transition in the energy industry from the traditional fossil-fuel based baseload power generation to a decentralized, distributed, and cleaner format due to approaching or already established grid parity of many technologies, such as solar power, offshore wind power, electric vehicles and the like. However, conventional u...

Energy is the world’s most dynamic industry in need of change. Electric utilities and power retailers are the backbone of the energy transition as they cope with increasing power demand and changing load patterns driven by electrification. They also enable greenhouse gas reductions by integrating distributed energy resources such as solar rooftops,...

Decentralized solid waste and waste water management could be a cost effective and simple way in which waste could be managed on site or near waste generating operations. Rapid population growth and industrialization has increased the necessity for decentralized treatment technologies. The current global scenario has created need for decentralized ...

Globally, low-carbon energy resources are increasingly critical to combat climate change and ensure adherence to the Paris Climate Summit declarations, especially net zero carbon emissions targets. Nuclear energy can play a critical role due to its high energy density, low land footprint compared to renewable energy sources, and cost competitivenes...

The electricity markets of Kenya and Tanzania are power scarce, with low electricity access and per capita consumption levels. Electricity demand here is set to increase significantly, driven by the economic upturn and increasing urbanisation. Kenya and Tanzania are focusing on utilising their natural gas and geothermal energy resources to meet the...
