In this wild energy market, it is big fun talking to industry experts. It's even more fun when we talk about the critical infrastructure, solutions and how to get to the lowest cost kWh to the consumers with the least impact on the environment.The grid is one huge problem looming in the shadows in the energy transition and is not funded, or given the proper attention. Industry experts like Tim are essential for the transition, and sustainable energy.Please reach out to Tim on his LinkedIn here: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/timothyhade/)Scale Microgrids website HERE: (https://www.scalemicrogrids.com/)00:00 - Intro01:03 - As a Co-Founder how did Tim Hade Get started in Micro Grids and who are his partners01:48 - What is Co-Generation or CHP?02:53 - Knowing More on What Tim Hade do and the History of Scale Micro Grids05:11 - Talks about Scale Microgrids to Build Clean Energy System with the Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians06:43 - Talks about Tribal Lands from an energy infrastructure perspective10:19 - How can the integration of renewable energy sources like solar power with energy storage systems and natural gas standby generators be optimized to create a cost-effective micro-grid solution that balances sustainability with reliability?14:38 - Talks about the Best Business Cases for Microgrids16:06 - Talks about Electricity Economics, Differentiating Whole Sale and Retail Prices19:48 - Talks about Distributed Energy Resources Community in the Microgrid Space/ FERC 22-22 / Energy Cost23:47 - Talks about Supply Chain on Microgrids and the Supply Storage27:34 - The topic discusses the status of utility grids in certain areas and the potential for microgrids to address issues of poor, unreliable, and expensive energy services in rural and isolated communities, with a particular focus on island nations and states.29:37 - Talks about Microgrids with Distributed Energy / ERCOT/ Transmission32:22 - Talks about Small Modular Reactors (SMR)34:06 - Talks about The Infrastructure Bill and the Inflation Reduction Act38:47 - Talks about the Department of Energy (DOE) and what they were able to do40:14 - Talks about Permitting and What do we do with existing Nuclear Reactors42:24 - Talks about Small Modular Reactors and the importance of it being maintained43:48 - What is coming around the corner for his grid and what's coming around the corner for Tim45:59 - OutroTim Hade [00:01:48] Sure. So co-generation and also sometimes called combined heat and power is essentially using typically a fossil gas asset to generate both electricity and heat simultaneously. I think about how we typically use natural gas in the electricity you know, you're generating at about 40 to 50% electrical efficiency and then the waste heat in a combined cycle plan is reused in the typical peaker plant. It's not.
