A couple of weeks ago (@EnergySystemsIG), I announced that @VibrantCE, @CatalystCoop, @GridLabEnergy, Pattern Energy have released the RARE power dataset. If you want it, too, just go here: zenodo.org/records/139375… (or download with PUDL - a great resource BTW).

The notebook we used to make these maps is on @kaggle along with the VCE dataset, which is now integrated into PUDL: kaggle.com/code/catalystc…
VCE is proud to collaborate on the release of the RARE Power Dataset—an open-source, high-res tool for solar & wind energy modeling. It fills a key gap for grid planners, ensuring more reliable clean power systems. Use the QR code to go directly to the data!

"@VibrantCE put together a report that identified that if nuclear energy is included in the transmission mix as the US looks to decarbonize, we'll actually save our ratepayers about half a trillion dollars."

Clean Electricity is a lynchpin to a decarbonized economy. As @VibrantCE has shown, we can clean up transportation and buildings with clean electricity, while running a reliable grid and savings Minnesotan's $$$ mcknight.org/programs/midwe…

Utility exec, looking to the past: "We absolutely are superior in every regard to those markets over time."
Modeling w/@VibrantCE, based on reasonable future cost assumptions: an EIM or RTO would save over $100B as compared to SEEM (current "market").

LDES doesn’t work because of the energy density requirements along with the energy harvesting potential by regions. Both will likely be needed; but you need spatial scaling to capture more energy & move. Hydrogen helps (we have tested with all).

Why #transmission is so important to the #electricity #grid. Remember the #synopticscales. It is large and we must interconnect regions together for these #regular events! Look at the difference between the east & west for next week! We need to connect them!

Most utility scale development is on private, rather than public lands.
Also important to note that scaling distributed generation also requires a significant transmission build. @VibrantCE modeling for @votesolar here: vibrantcleanenergy.com/wp-content/upl…

Info for #energytwitter. More #coal plant capacity operates worldwide 2day than #naturalgas plants in ratio of abt 6:5. Moreover, more coal under construction than gas (same ratio). Total worldwide #wind & #solar currently operating would not power just #US electricity.

"Modeling specialist @VibrantCE has proposed a transmission 'overlay' for the contiguous US, with about 210 underground high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission lines, 70 nodes, and underwater lines along nearly the entire coastline."

Modeled in the zero2050usa.com study. This is the structure of the #clean #economy by 2050 along with the built #UGHVDC overlay. Existing high voltage AC transmission shown as well. Huge amounts of #HVAC is also constructed in the simulations.
Yeah, bt what if we cld have a ~70 node, ~210 line UG HVDC trans. overlay for CONUS? Cost ~$400 bn (or $35 bn/yr or $7.5/MWh). It wld save 4.5 Gt of GHG emissions by 2050 & enable reduced electricity costs of $25/MWh. #climatechange #cleanenergy #UGHVDC #justsaying #permitting
