Energy storage is essential to a clean electricity grid, but aggressive decarbonization goals require development of long-duration energy storage technologies. The job of an electric grid operator is, succinctly put, to keep supply and demand in constant balance, as even minor imbalances between the two can damage equipment and cause …
The 20% share of electricity in global final consumption is growing, but electricity cannot carry energy transitions on its own against a backdrop of rising demand for energy services. Bringing down emissions from core oil and gas operations is a key step in helping countries to get environmental gains from using less emissions-intensive fuels.
