  • Summary

    One of the greatest concerns facing the implementation of a worldwide 100 percent clean, renewable energy and storage system is whether electricity, heat, cold, and hydrogen will be available when they are needed. In other words, can a 100 percent WWS grid avoid blackouts? Thus, the main challenge in a future grid will be to match electricity, heat, cold, and hydrogen demand with 100 percent WWS electricity and heat supply plus storage while using demand response. This chapter discussed meeting such demand both on the short timescale (seconds to minutes) and long times scale (months to seasons to years).
