Calif. Interconnection Workshop Dec 6
It appears that California is gearing up to follow in the footsteps of Texas and New York, and do something about interconnection requirements.

Distribtued Power R&D Solicitation
The National Renewable Energy Laboratory anticipates issuing Letters of Interest (LOI) to solicit research and development efforts from members of the Distributed Power Community and related industries. The anticipated effort will be directed to include modeling, field testing, and analysis to determine the means of integrating distributed power resources.
DOE Adv Turbine Systems Conference
The most efficient turbine systems in the world will be highlighted at our conference, a topic of high interest to the Power Generation and Turbine Industry today. This program covers all projects that the DOE and industry/academia/labs are jointly performing.
DOE Vision 21 Energy Plants of the Future Solicitation
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has opened the competition for companies to begin designing a new type of energy facility that could change the way people think about fossil fuel power plants in the 21st century.
DOE Distrib Power Review & IEEE Interconnection Working Group
DP covers a wide gamut of topics, from village power and rural electrification to industrial power parks, partially self-powered office towers (incl. PV), combined heat and power (CHP) and all varieties of renewable energy. There are three “elements of success” that must be met — technologies, markets, and policies.
CADER/DPCA Symposium on Distributed Resources
It is not a matter if, or even when, but only of how fast, distributed generation will be deployed on a major scale. In fact, DG is already here, and has been for a long time, in various forms and applications. If it truly is a “disruptive technology”, then we can expect it to lurk below the surface.
Regensys Large Scale Utility Energy Storage
National Power (U.K.), has announced a new electricity storage technology – called Regenesys – in which a flowing electrolyte is charged and then and stored in tanks for later use. It has a high speed of response, supplies real and reactive power and is therefore suited to many different applications on a power system.
CERTS Draft White Papers – Grid of the Future
Attached are the six DRAFT white papers prepared for the CERTS program by the various participants (labs and others), which have been made available to UFTO for review and comment. These were presented at an invitational workshop last Friday Sept. 17. Apparently Hurricane Floyd dampened the attendance but not the enthusiasm.
