In addition, despite the rigorous development of renewables, carbon dioxide emissions are increasing, because the energy mix increasingly includes coal-fired power plants that emit large quantities of CO 2 to compensate for weather-related fluctuations in power generation from renewables and the closing of nuclear plants.

If every home in the United States were to implement these energy-saving technologies, it would be the equivalent of taking all the homes in California, New York and Texas—32 million homes—off the power grid. The MyEnergi Lifestyle model also predicts: 32% reduction of PM 2.5. 35% reduction of PM 10. 38% reduction of NO x.

To compensate for the increased amounts of these inherently–variable sources of electricity, the power grid requires additional flexibility to manage fluctuations in generation. As one of the fastest growing electricity sources in the United States, wind can be expected to meet a large proportion of the renewable portfolio standards.

The full set of such standards should not only govern the physical interface, but also take into consideration safety and power grid standards. State Grid, the largest Chinese utility, has established charging standards, but these differ from US and European standards which would add to cost and inhibit access to global markets.

Transcript Eliza Strickland: Technology to combat climate change got a big boost this year when the US Congress passed the Inflation Reduction Act , which authorized more than 390 billion for spending on clean energy and climate change. One of the big winners was a technology called carbon capture and storage. Is that how you think about it?

In the power grid, supply and demand need to match exactly. If consumers demand more power than producers can supply, or if producers provide more power than consumers need, the result can be rolling blackouts. Or they maintain coal-fueled backup generators that can be fired up quickly. Madjidian et al.
