Dynamic demand (electric power)Dynamic Demand is the name of a semi-passive technology to support demand response by adjusting the load demand on an electrical power grid. It is also the name of an independent not-for-profit organization in the UK supported by a charitable grant from the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation, dedicated to promoting this technology. The concept is that by monitoring the frequency of the power grid, as well as their own controls, intermittent domestic and industrial loads switch themselves on/off at optimal moments to balance the overall grid load with generation, reducing critical power mismatches.
Renewable energy in ChinaChina is the world's leader in electricity production from renewable energy sources, with over triple the generation of the second-ranking country, the United States. China's renewable energy sector is growing faster than its fossil fuels and nuclear power capacity, and is expected to contribute 43 per cent of global renewable capacity growth. China's total renewable energy capacity exceeded 1,000 GW in 2021, accounting for 43.5 per cent of the country's total power generation capacity, 10.
Grid-tied electrical systemA grid-tied electrical system, also called tied to grid or grid tie system, is a semi-autonomous electrical generation or grid energy storage system which links to the mains to feed excess capacity back to the local mains electrical grid. When insufficient electricity is available, electricity drawn from the mains grid can make up the shortfall. Conversely when excess electricity is available, it is sent to the main grid.
Ressource non renouvelableUne ressource naturelle est qualifiée de non renouvelable ou épuisable lorsque sa vitesse de destruction dépasse, largement ou non, sa vitesse de création. Le sol se forme en quelques siècles à plusieurs millénaires suivant les conditions chimiques, physiques et biologiques et est actuellement détruit dans certaines régions en quelques dizaines d'années, voire quelques années. On peut aussi rapprocher l'actuelle destruction accélérée des espèces d'une ressource .
MicrogridA microgrid is a local electrical grid with defined electrical boundaries, acting as a single and controllable entity. It is able to operate in grid-connected and in island mode. A 'Stand-alone microgrid' or 'isolated microgrid' only operates off-the-grid and cannot be connected to a wider electric power system. A grid-connected microgrid normally operates connected to and synchronous with the traditional wide area synchronous grid (macrogrid), but is able to disconnect from the interconnected grid and to function autonomously in "island mode" as technical or economic conditions dictate.
Système multi-agentsEn informatique, un système multi-agent (SMA) est un système composé d'un ensemble d'agents (un processus, un robot, un être humain, une fourmi etc.), actifs dans un certain environnement et interagissant selon certaines règles. Un agent est une entité caractérisée par le fait qu'elle est, au moins partiellement, autonome, ce qui exclut un pilotage centralisé du système global.
Ressource renouvelablethumb|Déforestation en Europe Une ressource renouvelable est une ressource naturelle dont le stock peut se reconstituer sur une période courte à l'échelle humaine de temps, en se renouvelant au moins aussi vite qu'elle est consommée. C'est le cas par exemple de diverses ressources animales d'élevage ou végétales cultivées (biomasse), l'eau d'une nappe d'eau souterraine dont le niveau reste stable, de l'énergie éolienne et de l'énergie solaire. En ce qui concerne les ressources vivantes naturelles (gibiers, poissons, mais aussi humus, forêts primaires.
Wide area synchronous gridA wide area synchronous grid (also called an "interconnection" in North America) is a three-phase electric power grid that has regional scale or greater that operates at a synchronized utility frequency and is electrically tied together during normal system conditions. Also known as synchronous zones, the most powerful is the Northern Chinese State Grid with 1,700 gigawatts (GW) of generation capacity, while the widest region served is that of the IPS/UPS system serving most countries of the former Soviet Union.
Comparison of data-serialization formatsThis is a comparison of data serialization s, various ways to convert complex objects to sequences of bits. It does not include markup languages used exclusively as s.
Decision intelligenceDecision intelligence is an engineering discipline that augments data science with theory from social science, decision theory, and managerial science. Its application provides a framework for best practices in organizational decision-making and processes for applying machine learning at scale. The basic idea is that decisions are based on our understanding of how actions lead to outcomes. Decision intelligence is a discipline for analyzing this chain of cause and effect, and decision modeling is a visual language for representing these chains.
