Creating a Proper Power Plan

When people think of microprocessors, computers are the first thing that comes to mind. Yet, all the PCs, Apple desktops, engineering workstations, and supercomputers comprise less than 1% of the microprocessors sold yearly. So, where are all these microprocessors hiding?

When people think of microprocessors, computers are the first thing that comes to mind. Yet, all the PCs, Apple desktops, engineering workstations, and supercomputers comprise less than 1% of the microprocessors sold yearly. So, where are all these microprocessors hiding? Well, they are in all the devices people use every day.

Today’s homes contain hundreds of microprocessors. Microprocessors make living a lot easier, from wiring to home entertainment systems, lighting, and other smart home devices. What makes all these devices run? Power. And to ensure those devices used to keep a home operating, it isn’t enough to have a reliable power supply; a proper power plan is critical.

Power quality and reliability are two parts of a power plan residential homeowners must understand to keep those microprocessors running efficiently. So, how do people create a proper power plan?

On this epsiode of The Next Generation of Energy, Bobby Brill spoke with the man himself, Joe Piccirilli, CEO of RoseWater Energy, to get those answers and find out what comprises a sound power plan.

Brill and Piccirilli cover the following in their discussion:

  • The growing need for sophisticated home medical devices requiring a reliable energy supply
  • Forming a power plan that consists of the correct type of alternative power storage to assist with power grid load changes and other issues
  • Understanding power conditioning to provide consistent voltage to a home

“The output of a RoseWater power conditioner is always 120 volts,” Piccirilli said. “There is no transfer time involved. Its very function is to make sure that the residents of this critical load panel are always being fed 120 volts. That’s what the primary purpose of this device does.”

Sunergise buys Infratec to move from rooftops into utility-scale solar

Sunergise buys Infratec to move from rooftops into utility-scale solar

Sunergise is buying Infratec from WEL Networks for an undisclosed price. The commercial rooftop specialist, which has installed more than 50MW, gains utility-scale project delivery capability it did not have before.

  • 01By megawatts, the buyer is the smaller company: Sunergise has installed more than 50MW since 2012, while Infratec has built 194MW of solar and 49MWh of batteries.
  • 02Customers with live projects at either company keep their existing contracts and service commitments, but whether Infratec keeps its own name is still undecided.

TGS plans $100M Perito Moreno expansion to move 4.5M more cubic meters a day

TGS plans $100M Perito Moreno expansion to move 4.5M more cubic meters a day

Transportadora de Gas del Sur (TGS) wants to spend $100 million adding 4.5 million cubic meters a day to Argentina's Perito Moreno pipeline, which carries 21 million today. The request awaits Energy Secretariat approval. It comes alongside a $550 million compression project due by late April 2027 that will add 14 million cubic meters a day.

  • 01The $100 million add-on comes alongside an ongoing $550 million compression project on the same pipeline, and TGS plans to submit $70 million of the new spending under Argentina's RIGI investment incentive regime.
  • 02If the compression work and the 4.5 million option both deliver, Perito Moreno's first phase could carry substantially more than its current 21 million cubic meters a day.
  • 03Two milestones could set the pace: the Energy Secretariat's decision on TGS's October 8 request, and late April 2027, when three compression plants are scheduled to add 14 million cubic meters a day.

Sami Alnuaim's new book pushes oil fields toward making their own decisions

Sami Alnuaim's new book pushes oil fields toward making their own decisions

Intelligent oil field plans run into a scale problem. Roughly 70% of oil and gas digital initiatives never get past the pilot stage, so the payoff depends on funding, data ownership and engineering skills.

  • 01Roughly 70% of oil and gas digital initiatives never make it out of the pilot stage.
  • 02A sharper procurement question: which decisions can the system be trusted to make?
  • 03Emissions and safety are leading candidates for scaling intelligent workflows, where data sharing may face less resistance.
