MIT Framework Maps Grid Weak Spots Before Climate Disasters Hit

Researchers at MIT have developed a new framework to map out geographical hotspots and pain points for our beleaguered electrical grids. As extreme weather events and soaring summer heat waves become more commonplace, and energy demands on the electric grid skyrocket thanks to data center hyperscalers, understanding the minutiae of climactic patterns as well as how they map onto regional trends in energy supply and demand will be critical to ensure grid stability and security going forward. This summer’s blistering heat waves have underlined…Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei OilPrice.com Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei OilPrice.com
