Monday’s solar eclipse will affect California’s power system for a couple of hours, but the state’s grid operator says utility customers in San Diego and across the Golden State will be largely ...

On April 8, the solar eclipse will block out the sun for a lot of solar panels. Here's how it will affect the grid. With an energy ecosystem increasingly fueled by the power of sunlight, the sky going ...

NASA estimates the path of totality—when the sun is fully blocked by the moon—will last from 1:30 p.m. CDT (1830 GMT) to 2:35 p.m. CDT in the U.S. The eclipse is forecast to pass Texas from 12:10 p.m.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission last week issued a 40-page draft “Smart Grid Policy.” Power generators nationwide could be affected by the policy’s call to develop standards to address the ...

Grid operators are racing to keep up with a surge of renewable power and a wave of electricity-guzzling data centers, and the old toolkit of short-duration lithium packs and gas peaker plants is no ...

April 5 (Reuters) - Electric grids across the U.S. are anticipating a rapid decline in solar generation during Monday's total solar eclipse, which will span multiple states. NASA estimates the path of ...

Energy storage for the electrical grid is about to hit the big time. By the reckoning of the International Energy Agency (iea), a forecaster, grid-scale storage is now the fastest-growing of all the ...

A grid-scale battery in the Scottish Highlands got a chance to prove its mettle in March when, 11 days after it started up, a massive wood-burning generator in northern England shut down unexpectedly.

Grid batteries could back up wind and solar and they’re becoming more affordable. Large-scale batteries on our power grid could balance the intermittency of wind and solar, along with the normal ...

Energy risks are growing across the United States and Canada, including several areas in jeopardy of energy supply shortfalls amid extreme weather patterns. This is a key warning in the North American ...
