Here's why we need a smart grid — and how we build one
网页2022年12月5日 — Image: Intel. The smart grid requires an advanced level of computing to be deployed at the edge of the grid to manage and optimize the highly distributed intermittent loads introduced. It also requires a “total system” approach to effectively balance multiple fluctuating energy sources, consumption levels and new renewable technologies.
AI is transforming the grid. Here's how. | World Economic Forum
网页2021年9月16日 — AI will transform the grid from an aging supplier of commodity electricity to an intelligent “system of systems” that produces optimised outcomes. Steep increases in renewables will cut electric sector emissions, but the grid must undergo major changes for this to occur. The world’s energy systems are changing.
and what to do about it - The World Economic Forum
网页2019年4月30日 — Smart grids have the potential to boost resiliency and to catalyse the efficient and sustainable use of electricity. Real-time access to supply and demand platforms, enabled by smart grids, could deliver a value of $632 billion to society – higher than any other individual digital initiative. This value derives primarily from cost savings to ...
This is how Copenhagen plans to go carbon-neutral by 2025
网页2019年5月21日 — This emerging district is designed to be the world’s foremost smart energy laboratory at full scale. This district heating and smart-grid integration shows how electricity and heat, energy-efficient buildings and electric transport can be integrated into one intelligent, flexible and optimized energy system.
Here's how a smart water grid could stop global warming
网页2018年1月25日 — A pan-European smart thermal water grid would have a huge impact on the environment and on the economy of the world’s biggest marketplace. Through a smart water grid, we could avoid heating the birds Image: Bill Gierke/Unsplash.

How blockchain can manage the future electricity grid
网页2018年5月30日 — The D3A balances the grid from the edge up, not the top down. In matryoshka-like fashion, at every scale of the grid - from individual devices, to buildings, neighbourhoods, and regions - the D3A nests hierarchical markets, coded as blockchain smart contracts, which govern the transactions that balance electricity supply and demand.
What are microgrids – and how can they help with power cuts?
网页2022年5月6日 — Microgrids can switch away from the main grid and continue to provide power during emergencies like these. This process is known as ‘islanding’. Microgrids can also provide power in remote places that have no access to electricity. Microgrids can provide power where bigger grids fail, even in remote areas. Image: Climate X Change.
