Mandating Advanced Modeling for US Power Grid Reliability and Resilience.
This law requires power grid operators to use sophisticated statistical models to better forecast and plan energy supply. These models must account for uncertainties like extreme weather, the growing number of electric vehicles, and energy storage systems. The goal is to make the grid more reliable and resilient, directly protecting citizens from widespread power outages.
Key points
Requires the use of probabilistic modeling for resource planning to ensure adequate electricity supply (resource adequacy).
Modeling must specifically account for uncertainties related to extreme weather, transmission constraints, and the increasing electrification of transport and homes.
