U.S. grid operators lag far behind international counterparts in deploying a technology that is supporting grid modernization efforts across the world, according to a new report from The Brattle Group and DNV. High-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission technology is expanding rapidly, with more than 300 gigawatts (GW) of installed capacity worldwide and 150 GW planned over the next decade.

This report, “The Operational and Market Benefits of HVDC to System Operators,” offers nine recommendations to address barriers the technology faces in the U.S. The report sponsors include the American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE), Allete, Clean Grid Alliance, GridLab, Grid United, and Pattern Energy Group.

A summary of the report can be accessed here, and the full report is available below.

What does today’s GOP champion?  Cutting off all assistance for the poor, tax cuts of billionaires, slashing into Social Security (the money you and I earned) and starting a senseless and illegal war.

Who are the radicals here?

What It Means to be a Leftist

I just came across Sofo Archon, an incredibly interesting speaker and writer.

My only response to what he says at left is that you are, in fact, a leftist, whether you accept that or not.  Anyone who says that he belongs to “Humanity and Earth” is a leftist by definition, just like anyone who wears the t-shirt below.

This is kind of like saying, “I am neither a Christian nor an atheist, but I believe in God and I accept His son Jesus Christ as my savior.”  Sorry, that makes you a Christian.
