Superpower — The Quest To Transform American Energy To Renewables

Dear GENI Friend,

https://aemstatic-ww1.azureedge.net/content/dam/pe/print-articles/2018/01/1801PEf2-z04_web.jpgThe optimal renewable energies like solar, wind, hydro and geothermal are often located far from cities and industry. High-voltage transmission lines enable us to safely send that power over mountains, plains, underwater and across international borders.

Computer models (WIS:dom, Weather Informed energy Systems: for designers, operations and markets) have been run that optimize U.S. renewable energies with an HVDC overlay – and project a 90% reduction of carbon emissions while also cuttings costs by 20%. A strong HVDC network is more resistant and reliable. If a storm knocks out one part of the network, another route can immediately be available.

By interconnecting energy networks across borders we also build clean energy, trading relationships and peaceful cooperation. It’s a win, win, win.

These energy "highways" are the critical link to a sustainable world for us all. This is one technology that gets better for everyone as it grows around the world.

In Partnership for the Planet,

P.S. I was recently called by Bloomberg News to update the potential for renewable energy on tribal lands for additional income and jobs: From Gambling to Solar, U.S. Tribes Bet on New Revenue Stream.
