Smart Grid
One of the most important ways alternative energy companies will increase the efficiency of electric production and consumption is the creation of a smart grid. The grid in use today is based on an outdated 100 year old model that will require massive infrastructure upgrades which will take decades to complete. One example of a necessary improvement to the electric grid is to better integrate intermittent renewable generating sources such as wind and solar. Also, a smart grid will allow utilities to better manage their peak load distribution, reducing the need to build more generating capacity. The implementation of the smart gird has started—it’s not a question of “if” it will happen, but how long it will take to build.
