The U.S. power grid wasn’t built for the demand it’s facing today. Rapid electrification, energy decarbonization, AI growth, new industrial and manufacturing plants, and aging infrastructure have ...

Distributed energy resources are advancing the cause of a more resilient and reliable power supply for utilities, homes and businesses, and more. Distributed energy resources (DERs) have become a ...

It hasn’t been that long since humans figured out how to create power grids that integrated multiple generators and consumers. Ever since AC won the battle of the currents, grid operators have had to ...

Over the past decades power grids have undergone a transformation towards smaller and more intermittent generators – primarily in the form of wind and solar generators – as well as smaller ...

Over the past several weeks, I’ve been conducting a large-scale bibliometric study on publicly available Chinese academic literature related to hacking and crashing Western power grids. In this ...

A power paradox is emerging in the hyperscale era: while computing demand is accelerating, power availability is increasingly becoming the constraint that determines where data centers are built, how ...

Power-grid frequency reflects the balance between electricity supply and demand in a power system. Measuring the frequency and its variations allows monitoring of the power balance in the system and, ...

Australia’s big clean energy projects get a lot of attention, from giant solar farms to the Snowy 2.0 pumped hydro scheme. So ...

Free electric pressure cookers helped families in Goma, DRC to save money. Courtesy Sebastien Desbureaux More than 560 million people in sub-Saharan Africa live without electricity. About 384 million ...

With the explosive growth of Big Tech's data centers threatening to overload U.S. electricity grids, policymakers are taking a hard look at a tough-love solution: bumping the energy-hungry data ...

Anomaly detection in smart power grids is a critical challenge due to the complexity, heterogeneity, and dynamic nature of sensor data streams. Existing one-class classification methods, particularly ...
