The Future of Hydrogen event’s objective was to provide insights into the latest advancements, market trends, and applications of hydrogen energy and be a platform for networking, sharing ideas, and exploring the future potentials of hydrogen.
Beyond the Black Box: Unlock More Value from Green Energy Assets
There are very few topics getting as much attention today as renewable energy. From expanding wind farms and solar operations to green hydrogen technology, to electric vehicles and their impact on the grid and infrastructure, the face of how we generate and use power...
Break Away from Suboptimal Turbine Control
The days of wind energy as a niche market are long behind us. Today, wind power makes up a growing share of the energy marketplace as corporate, government, and societal pressures for reducing carbon emissions continue to increase. However, meeting the needs of the...
Ask the Expert: Your burning questions about frequency and inertia for renewables and Inverter-Based Resources
Meeting local and national CO2 emission goals and responding to social pressures related to global warming are primary factors driving decarbonization efforts in the energy industry across the world. At the same time, electricity demand is growing across the board....
Weighing Your Wind Turbine Options: Retrofit, Replace or Repair?
I’m often asked about how much impact wind turbine control retrofits can have on overall operations, and how they stack up against replacement or repair. It’s simple: they can be a very cost-effective way to positively affect the performance and reliability of a...
With investment flowing into hydro plants, it’s time to think about the benefits of modernizing controls
Funding is flowing into U.S. hydropower facilities: Recently, the U.S. Department of Energy announced that through the Hydroelectric Production Incentive, 66 hydro facilities would receive $38 million in incentive payments for electricity generated and sold. This...
Should you Rethink your PID-based Control Strategy?
PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative)-based control has been commonly used for decades. And while it still is adequate for controlling many process parameters, the time may be right to take a step back and re-evaluate PID-based control in power generation and other...
