DE-FOA-0000473: Green Electricity Network Integration (GENI)
Recent advances in computation, networking, and grid monitoring have shed light on potential ways to deliver electricity more efficiently and reliably. Today, however, approximately one out of every five electricity dollars is lost to power outages and 30 percent of the grid’s hardware needs replacing. ARPA-E seeks to fund innovative control software and high-voltage hardware to reliably control the grid network, specifically: 1) cost-optimizing controls able to manage sporadically available sources, such as wind and solar, alongside coal and nuclear, and 2) resilient power flow control hardware – or the energy equivalent of an internet router – to enable automated, real-time control of grid components.
