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.

Are Americans Fed Up with Trumpism?

We can only hope.

In a Strange Way, Trump Is Transparent
One good thing about having Trump in the White House is that doesn’t have enough sense to hide what a terrible person he is.
We all recall the COVID-19 outbreak, and Trump’s suggestion that we reduce our testing for the disease on the basis that less testing means fewer positive results, which means less outrage on the level of Trump’s ineptitude in handling the epidemic.
