Electricity for Sustainable Energy. Turning incandescent lamps into heatballs. September 8, 2010. Posted by Hans De Keulenaer in efficiency. Are terribly inefficient. About 5% electricity gets converted into light with the remaining 95% lost as heat. They are class F appliances at best. However, their inefficiency as lighting devices makes them 95% efficient to convert electricity into heat, justifying a class A label without any doubt. Enter the heatball. Please join us today in promoting heatballs ever...

Electricity for Sustainable Energy. Renewable Energy penetration: the upcoming challenges for TSOs. April 4, 2008. Posted by Hans De Keulenaer in grids. 408% of the overall electricity demand was supplied on real time basis by wind power some days ago in the Spanish electricity system. This record constitutes a real challenge for transmission system operators (TSOs). This paper shows some good practices from the Spanish TSO, REE, leading to better integration of renewable generation: commissioning a dedi...

Electricity for Sustainable Energy. How should we support the development of renewables? September 8, 2010. Posted by Hans De Keulenaer in efficiency. On the Oil Drum asks this question. Renewables receive many billions of dollars/euros in support, primarily in feed-in tariffs. There is little questioning about the level of support, but lots of debate where to spend it. Some say that spending it all on research would have resulted in much more progress. Rewarding results: how should we support the develo...
