Assessing the Potential for Building Sector Retrofits to Mitigate ERCOT Electricity Shortfalls During Winter Storm Uri
The electrification scenario that retrofitted buildings with air-source heat pumps (ASHPs) would have lowered ERCOT daily peak electricity demand relative to the baseline scenario for every day of the year, except during the week of Winter Storm Uri.
Observations of peak electric load growth in ERCOT with the rise of electrified heating and its implications for future resource planning
Future peak winter and summer electricity demand scenarios indicated that while average temperatures on winter peak demand days will remain fairly constant, they will be more erratic than temperatures on summer peak demand days.
Ensuring reliability: what is the optimal time for power plant maintenance in Texas as the climate changes?
We analyzed data for the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) to assess shoulder seasons -- that is, the 45 days of lowest total energy use and peak demand in the spring and fall typically used for power plant maintenance -- and whether their occurrence has changed over time.
Valuing Distributed Energy Resources for Non-Wires Alternatives
Distributed energy resources (DER) as non-wires alternatives, regardless of owner, have the potential to reduce system operating costs and delay system upgrades.
On-line Building Energy Optimization using Deep Reinforcement Learning
Unprecedented high volumes of data are becoming available with the growth of the advanced metering infrastructure.
