Resilience Framework for Electric Energy Delivery Systems
July 2021
EnerNex co-authored this report with Idaho National Laboratory (INL) introducing a framework to enable more thoughtful and deliberate consideration of resilience as it relates to electrical energy delivery systems (EEDS), with specific application to distributed wind systems.
The framework outlines three tiers of resilience which enable stakeholders to assess and improve their syste...
Global Experiences in Smart Metering - Tactical Loss Reduction in Developing Countries
Published via the IEEE Smart Grid Newsletter - June 2021
Written by Aaron F. Snyder, Vadim Zheglov, and Michele Pastore
In the developing world, there is a wave of smart grid technology implementations driven by the desire to reduce “commercial” losses (another term for “non-technical” losses, or those not directly related to the power system infrastructure). Qu...
Report: Create DOE transmission agency to fight climate threat
E&E News
A massive, drought-stoked wildfire in southern Oregon has sharply reduced power line deliveries to California from the Pacific Northwest’s hydro dams, adding to the debate about future strategies to fortify the nation’s high-voltage power network.
The potential grid vulnerabilities came into focus last Thursday, when smoke from the Oregon blaze, acting as an electr...

2021 Annual Predictions and Trends for the Power Industry Roundtable with Energy Central
If 2020 taught us anything, it is how difficult it can be to predict the future! Looking back at the Energy Central's 2020 Special Issue Series we certainly didn’t see anyone sharing predictions on an evolving remote work environment, utility shutoff moratoriums, and digital experiences replacing in-person visits to customers. That said, thought leaders and experts in...
