With the United Nations’ COP26 event in full swing, climate change and the term net-zero have become increasingly popular terms in global headlines. Building on this recent momentum, we thought it would be diligent to share some guidelines and best practices for how to create and structure net-zero targets. In the following blog post, we will outline what makes a good net-zero target to allow you to better understand and judge the commitments that governments around the world have been making before and during the COP proceedings:

As countries around the world start/continue their transitions to renewable energy while also electrifying different sectors, new technologies must step up to support these parallel revolutions. While it might not be the “silver bullet” solution, it is now clear that energy storage in various forms will be a crucial supportive technology - ensuring a successful and sustainable transition over the coming years and decades.

Power Factor Penalties on your hydro bill could be costing you thousands of dollars a month. A Power Conditioning device can eliminate these penalties and certain types of power interruptions.

With new technological developments occurring every day, it is essential to stay on top of trends to continue improving your business by integrating new and potentially industry-changing technologies. With this in mind, we've decided to provide a quick rundown of a topic that has become increasingly prevalent recently – the Network Operations Center or NOC.

As the GA cost pool is decreasing year over year, the decision to either opt-in to Class A or Class B needs to be more thought out. Decreasing GA cost pool means that the amount of potential savings is also reduced, so only customers who can hit all 5 peaks and curtail cheaply will reap the full benefit of being Class A.

Energy infrastructure is almost fully digitized, but how safe is it?

Everyone’s heard of coal, nuclear and hydroelectric plants but what about base load and peak load power plants? Power plants are not only categorized by the fuel or energy source they generate power from but also by which load they serve – either base load or peak load. In the following short blog post, we will briefly outline the differences between these two categorizations of power plant.

Back on October 27th, the Ontario Sustainable Energy Association (OSEA) hosted the 11th Annual Green Energy Doors Open™ (GEDO) event.

System-Backed Capacity Import Resources are one of the newer resource classes eligible to participate in the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO)'s Capacity Auction. This raises the question: What is a System-Backed Capacity Import Resource?

It’s 8:56 am on Monday. You get in your Tesla and after you press one button it pulls out of your garage. You put your coffee in the cup holder and join your 9am zoom meeting from your iPad. The car has your calendar preloaded and it knows your next meeting is at 10:30am, downtown at your clients office.

You get in the elevator and are greeted by a virtual assistant who already knows where your meeting takes place, she sets the elevator to that floor. As you get to the right floor, OLED screens on the walls flash arrows to let you know where the meeting room is.
