When Gurhan Andac was growing up in Ankara, Turkey, he dreamed of designing big ships or locomotives. Then, during his senior year at college, a professor showed the class a video about gas turbine jet engines, and he was converted. He decided to apply for graduate school abroad and was accepted into the University of Southern California’s engineering program. To help him plan his education, he wrote to GE to ask for advice, knowing it was a place where he might be able to pursue that career someday.

Mencapai Dekarbonisasi Dinamis Bagi Indonesia

October 07, 2021
header-image

Jalan menuju dekarbonisasi penuh dengan tantangan. Sumber energi terbarukan seperti angin dan sinar matahari hanya dapat memasok daya dalam waktu-waktu tertentu sehingga membutuhkan adanya jaringan yang lebih kuat, sistem penyimpanan daya yang mahal, dan pembangkit listrik fleksibel untuk melengkapinya. Dari sudut pandang lingkungan, penggunaan tenaga air perlu dipikirkan secara mendalam pengembangannya. Di sisi lain, penggunaan biomassa masih baru pada tahap awal dan tetap menjadi sumber daya yang tidak efisien.

Switch It Up: Global Grid Leaders Join In A Bid To Help Decarbonize Their Industry

High-voltage electrical substations — those ubiquitous installations that adjust voltage up or down so that electrical power can travel over long distances and be used in homes and businesses — have for a half-century relied on a highly effective insulator and arc extinguisher that helps keep the size of their substations manageable. Trouble is that the insulator, a gas called sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), is also among the world’s most potent greenhouse gases, and it can linger in the atmosphere for millennia. So, what are electrical utilities to do?

The Road To Decarbonization: How To Achieve A Lower-Carbon Future? The Energy Industry Has Some Ideas.

Daniel Kruger
April 12, 2021

There has been a lot of talk in Washington recently about decarbonization and bringing more renewable energy online. Proposals include extending tax credits for wind and solar power and building enough offshore wind turbines to capture 30 gigawatts of wind energy by the end of the decade — enough to power more than 10 million American homes and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 78 million metric tons.
