This report explores the importance of digital solar with a special focus on new and emerging markets outside of Europe. It shows that digital solar is indeed a key pillar of the global energy transition in all segments of economy and society. The report includes off-grid digital solar technologies and business models such as solar-based microgrids and pay-as-you-go for solar, which enable access to energy in off-grid contexts or regions with unreliable power supply. Additionally, it includes on-grid technologies and business models that are interesting for new and emerging solar markets with stable power grids, such as smart data analytics or digital asset management for utility-scale solar power plants.
Energy storage has been in use in our society and daily life for decades. Although energy storage has not grown to be a significant part of the electric energy system, recent advancement of energy storage technologies and growing needs for energy storage in both power and transportation sectors make it possible and imperative to accelerate energy storage development, deployment, and adoption. Power systems have to balance electricity generation and consumption in real-time, gasoline and diesel fuel are still the primary sources of energy for transportation, and we generally do not have good ways to conveniently and cost-effectively store a large amount of electrical energy and use it in an on-demand manner. While we need to continue decarbonizing electric power generation through increases in renewable generation, we also need to address transportation as the main source of carbon emissions. Energy storage is an important solution to address both electrification of transportation and other industries and the variability in renewable energy such as wind and solar generation.
Bulk of the existing grid energy storage capacity is provided by pumped hydro energy storage plants that were built to support large baseload power plants such as nuclear generating stations. Battery energy systems are beginning to be deployed at a rapid pace. The requirements of energy storage in the electric grid are still evolving and may differ from those of electrical transportation. Needs for research and development to enhance energy storage performance and knowledge is summarized in the following areas:
1) Energy storage engineering and integration: Effective system integration is a challenging problem for energy storage due to the great diversity of potential applications ranging from behind-the-meter storage to large grid-connected energy storage plants. Each of these applications has its own set of constraints and performance requirements. Over the next decade, the diversity of energy storage installations will expand in the range of applications, in size and scale, and in system complexity. Effective integration is also important to achieve desired cost reduction needed to support large scale deployment. Research gaps in this area include: energy storage installations with higher power capacities and higher working voltages; streamlining engineering to hybridize and co-optimize energy storage with the rest of the system; more effective controls, sensors, and energy management systems; designing modular power converter architecture to minimize system complexity, improve reliability, and reduce integration costs; and industry standards for secure communication and interoperability.

Environment friendly and low carbon RE has a great development and research potential for GEI. Acceleration in development of clean energy is required in future to improve the proportion in world's energy generation. Low-cost conversion and plug in play type high-efficiency generation are required to develop in energy bases, especially on North Pole and Equator regions. Clean energy topic is generally divided into generation bases, grid integration and large-scale energy storage system. Hydropower is the key source of clean energy against power grid fluctuations due to intermittent sources. It has capabilities such as fast response on dispatch command, easy to start/shutdown, large capacity and high efficiency as well as flexible on load adjustment. However, large hydro sources can be improved further for eco-friendly point of
view.

Energy efficiency: a profit center for companies! Leonardo ENERGY
Investments in energy efficiency not only result in a reduction of energy consumption —the ener-gy benefit— but they also entail non-energy benefits such as improved product quality, reduced production time or improved comfort in sales area. Non-energy benefits significantly improve the business case of energy-efficiency investments in the business sector by raising their strategic character.
Within this context, the aim of this webinar is to discuss a methodology to describe and analyze the industrial non-energy benefits of energy efficiency. Linking energy, operational, strategic and fi-nancial aspects, this new conceptual framework enables to move away from the common view of energy as a commodity (where the only goal is to save kilowatt-hours) to adopt a new perspective on energy and energy services as strategic value for businesses.
This methodology will be further developed and documented by Task 26 Multiple Benefits of Ener-gy Efficiency, a project of IEA Demand Side Management Energy Efficiency Technology Collabora-tion Program, in close collaboration with practitioners, academic researchers and public program-mers. People or Institutions interested by Task 26 are most welcome to contact me.
Multiple benefits will also be discussed in-depth with a panel at this year’s IEPPEC June 7-9 Am-sterdam.
Heating without the hot air: Principles for smart heat electrificationLeonardo ENERGY
Heating in buildings is responsible for almost a third of total EU energy demand. And most of that heat is met by burning fossil fuels. In order to decarbonise heating, electrification is seen by many as a key strategy. The transformative challenge of the electrification of heating should not be underestimated. It will require strategic, ongoing policy and governance support. It requires a well-coordinated approach that cuts across several areas — buildings, individual and district heating systems, the power sector and existing heating fuel supply infrastructure. In this webinar, Dr. Jan Rosenow and Dr. Richard Lowes present pragmatic principles and policies for smart electrification of heating in Europe.
The webinar will be based on a recent RAP report which can be freely downloaded at https://www.raponline.org/knowledge-center/heating-without-hot-air-principles-smart-heat-electrification/

A Vision for a Holistic and Smart Grid with High Benefits to SocietyStephen Lee
Presented on Dec 2, 2009 as a keynote speech to the 2009 T&D Asia Conference in Bangkok and followed by moderating a round-table discussion of top utility executives in SE Asia.
The definition of the "Smart Grid" is something that is taking shape. Utility professionals concur on some aspects and ideas of what the smart grid should be, but there are still grey areas that, however, promise to become clearer soon.
Representatives from ComEd, the Environmental Defense Fund and the Center for Energy and Environment present their findings on state grid modernization during SEPA's 2018 Utility Conference.
since our electrical system consists of many interconnections .in order to have a proper transmission we need grid if we incorporate some sensors it results in smart grid .today grid system consists of all interconnection tapping points
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

JUCCCE stands for… Our mission is to accelerate the greening of China. Specifically, to accelerate the use of clean and efficient energy across China using international cooperation on impactful programs. The key word is ACCELERATE. Because China is already determined to go green, but it won’t be able to go green fast enough to combat our global climate issues. (Note: Some of the top climate change scientists in the world estimate that we have less than 10 years to make a substantial change in the way we use energy, or we will be faced with an increasingly unliveable planet.) Therefore, JUCCCE’s charter is 10 years. Our goal is to make a visible difference within the next 10 years.
