Dispatching Backup Generators at Data Centers to Protect Electric Grid Reliability
Growing load is straining electric grid resources, impacting grid stability and threatening blackouts. Backup generators at data centers could be dispatched during generation shortfalls, but current EPA emissions regulations limit their operation except during narrowly defined emergencies. This panel will have a nonprofit leader, state legislator, major utility executive and application engineer talk about what needs to change so generators at data centers can support grid reliability.
