Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 The first day of Grid Week is in Washington, D. C. The keynote address is given by Stephen Chu, a Nobel Prize–winning physicist and also for a time the U. S. secretary of energy. He tells the executives and engineers about the importance of integrating more renewable power generation.
#2 When there is too much solar, it can cause a blackout. When there is not enough wind, it can cause a blackout. America’s backup power plants are the oldest and dirtiest in the fleet.
#3 The power plants forced to take up the slack when renewables fall still are matched in age with the people in charge of running them. The culture of electricity making has to be transformed.
#4 Electricity is not like water that flows from one place to another. It doesn’t flow downhill, it doesn’t take the shortest path, and it won’t follow one route at the expense of another.
