Chemical energy

Different methods to create energy - on the top right, fossil energies. In the rest of the figure - renewable energy sources. Image: depositphotos.com

A computational approach developed at the Technion will accelerate the integration of renewable energy sources into the electricity grid

Innovative methods of optimization, which make it possible to "smooth out" the fluctuations in renewable energy production by shifting the load in the network according to consumption. Said energy is stored during hours of low consumption, and when needed electric power is "injected" into the grid

The energy that never ends - the difference between depleting and renewable energy

  • One response
What is renewable energy and what is degradable energy? What are the origins of one and what are the origins of the other? How are energy sources usually sorted and how can they be divided differently?
