How a Clean Energy Simulator Is Helping Build a Better Grid
NREL's experts have built a research platform that can create 3D simulations of entire power grids-either existing or theoretical-that contain thousands or even millions of different energy technologies.
Smart Panel Technology
The Lumin Smart Panel protects the inverter from overloading in the event of a power outage, restores power to the circuits as the battery recharges, and returns to the original settings when the grid is back online.
Can Traditional Maximum Demand Keep Up in a Smart Meter World?
Smart meters are changing everything for utilities and their customers! These meters let you see how much energy you're using almost in real-time. But many power companies still use old-fashioned maximum demand surcharge rate plans based only on the monthly peak usage.
