Case Study

In this study we examine the impact of integrating a fleet of Enoda PRIME® Exchangers (“Prime Exchangers”) coordinated by Enoda ENSEMBLE™ into the Texas grid through the Business As Usual (“BAU”) case.

BAU operation of around 25,000 400kVA Prime Exchangers can allow for reduction of up to 3,855.8 tonnes of CO2 in the Regulation-Up market (“RegUp”) on June 21st, 2023. This fleet of 25,000 devices would have been sufficient on this day to completely saturate the regulation up market.
Such a fleet would have reduced carbon emissions of just one of the frequency and ancillary services, RegUp, by 54%, and would also enable Texans to benefit from Enoda’s ability to provide these services at lowest marginal cost.

The Iberian Blackouts - What We Know so Far

We are waiting to learn what caused the Iberian blackouts. We don’t yet know the precise chain of events that took down the Iberian power grid, and we shouldn’t speculate on the causes until we have the data. Nevertheless, this tragedy has drawn attention to the challenge of maintaining frequency stability as electricity systems decarbonise.
