Outdoor temperatures could fall up to a degree with more efficient cooling systems
Can nuclear be used to balance renewables?
Nuclear plants cannot easily and safely be ramped up and down rapidly and regularly. So how can we balance variable outputs from renewables?
Rotatiload! Synchronous inertia and frequency stability
As we move away from large power plants, there will be problems with maintaining the stability of the electric grid
Firm power parity metric
Some renewables are variable, so how do we account for the cost of balancing them?
The cost of power: moving beyond LCOE
Levelised Cost of Energy figures are widely used but are a poor measure of actual energy costs. Can we do better?
Solar heating shines again
The UK may be doing reasonably well on green power, but it is not making much progress on green heat. What about solar heating?
Replacing LED light bulbs before they fail may be greener
Bulb manufacturers should focus on making LED bulbs more energy efficient before increasing lifetimes, study finds
