Is energy storage the magic bullet for renewables?Entelligent
Renewable energy is a serious rival to fossil fuels —but only when the sun shines and the wind blows. To take the industry to the next level, companies are now investing heavily in storage technologies, from huge battery arrays to high-tech flywheels, that allow them to literally save surplus energy for a rainy day.
This article discusses the growing energy storage market in Australia. It notes that while energy storage technologies are currently too expensive to be widely adopted, costs are expected to fall significantly in the coming years as new products enter the market. Energy storage could allow solar customers to store excess solar energy for later use, reducing electricity bills. The CEO of the Energy Storage Council expects mainstream adoption of domestic energy storage in Australia as early as 2018, much sooner than many predict. Standards will need to adapt to new battery technologies to ensure safety and reliability as the market develops.

It tracks issues like expiring federal tax credits for wind, state renewable portfolio standard goals being met, transmission constraints, and looks for new opportunities to advance renewable energy through legislation, integrated resource planning processes, and addressing other barriers.
Australia solar power sector opportunity analysisRajesh Sarma
The solar power sector in Australia has grown significantly in recent years. Solar capacity additions were relatively small until 2007 but have increased substantially since 2011, with over 1.6 GW added in 2011-2012 alone. This growth has been driven by changes in policies and a greater focus on solar energy from the government. Solar PV in Australia is divided between off-grid and grid-connected systems for domestic, commercial, and utility-scale use. Looking ahead, the government aims to further increase solar's contribution to electricity generation through ongoing investments and policy support as Australia has high potential for solar power due to its climate and resources.
The document discusses India's current power scenario and plans for the future. It notes that India currently has 185.5 GW of installed power capacity, but still has 300 million people without electricity. Per capita consumption is low at 778 kWh compared to world and EU averages. Transmission losses are also very high at 35-45%. The government is focusing on increasing power generation through new solar, tidal, biomass, nuclear and hydroelectric projects. Research is needed on utilizing India's deserts for solar power and reducing transmission losses. New power projects are planned in West Bengal totaling over Rs. 700-750 crore.
This document discusses four problems facing the electricity market: rising energy prices, divergence between demand and energy growth, increasing adoption of distributed energy resources, and declining network load factors. To address these issues, capacity-based pricing is proposed to maintain network revenues and incentivize demand management over energy consumption. While this may reduce incentives for energy efficiency, natural appliance replacement cycles and distributed energy adoption will continue to lower grid usage to some degree.
Net Metering - Why is TEP paying me less?Tres English
The document discusses proposed changes to net metering policies by electric utilities in Arizona that would negatively impact the economics of rooftop solar. It summarizes the key proposals from TEP and Trico utilities to reduce compensation for excess solar energy sent to the grid, eliminate rollover credits, and impose new fees. Studies are cited that show the benefits of net metering and rooftop solar outweigh the costs. The impact would likely be reduced solar installs, job losses in the solar industry, higher electric bills for customers, and damage to Arizona's reputation as a solar state. Batteries are not seen as a solution due to limitations. Questions are solicited.

The New Role of Data in the Changing Energy & Utilities LandscapeDenodo
Watch full webinar here: https://bit.ly/3PrxEx2
Energy companies - both producers and utilities - are facing a challenging and changing business and regulatory environment over the next decade or so. As governments around the world pledge to be 'net zero' by 2050, new regulations are putting pressure on energy companies to accelerate the move to renewable energy sources whilst at the same time gearing up for more widespread electrification as consumers move away from carbon fuels.
The growth of renewable energy sources has also changed the way that utilities manage demand response. The old way of bringing generating units (typically coal or gas-fueled generators) online for peak demand hours no longer works. The distributed utility infrastructure that is used today requires a lot more flexibility and planning to meet - and to shape - consumer demand.
At the heart of the energy company challenges is data. Data to better manage and optimize the generating resources. Data to better inform the consumers about their energy consumption. And data to deliver better services and new product offerings to those consumers.
In this webinar, we will look at how energy companies and utilities can liberate and democratize their data to better utilize the strategic data assets that they already own. We will look at how the Denodo Platform, powered by Data Virtualization, has helped energy companies around the world access real-time data to drive their operations and allow them to respond to the ever-changing business environment.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

• Weak Inter-regional Corridors due to multiple
outages
• High Loading on 400 kV Bina-Gwalior-Agra link
due to overdrawal by some of the NR utilities,
utilizing Unscheduled Interchange (UI).
• Inadequate Response by SLDCs to RLDCs’
instructions to reduce overdrawl by the NR
utilities and underdrawal by the WR utilities.
• Loss of 400 kV Bina-Gwalior link caused the NR
system to separate from the WR.

How can this be
averted in future?
• Need for Ancillary services in India
– Current supply mix is focused on lowest average
cost and not the flexibility required to maintain grid
reliability
– Ancillary services can incentivize generation owners
to maintain appropriate reserves to respond to
system emergencies
– Right policies can provide incentives for investment
in fast response technologies such as energy
storage which can act as shock absorbers and
provide flexibility required to avoid such events.
