Resiliency: Will We Learn its Value?
Dave Roop had nearly 44 years at Dominion and was the President of CIGRE US https://cigre-usnc.org
Now, this industry expert offers his insight on electric system resilience in T&D World.....
“As we move to a low-carbon energy footprint, the diversity of generation will be needed, and the need of firm low-carbon or non-carbon dispatchable resources hardened for extreme events must be encouraged. This need is not merely a generation or transmission issue but is also one that must be considered by state regulators for distribution systems by encouraging undergrounding, improving right-of-way clearing, or providing multiple service paths, including microgrids, to outage prone areas or critical loads”.
Thanks for your leadership Dave!!!!
Resiliency: Will We Learn its Value?
I have been impressed by the perseverance and hard work of the industry’s field workers under some extremely difficult conditions. The question for me is: Resiliency, and will we learn its value?
