A big grid solution to harness small solar arrays

Scientists at the U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory are developing a communication system to coordinate and control the volumes of solar power injected into grids by small scale solar arrays.Scientists at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in the U.S. are developing a system to coordinate and control the injection of solar power from small installations into large power networks. The system, described by its developers as "opportunistic," routes messages through several communication technologies based on generation capacity latency and availability data. The communication ...
