I-Mutian Energy ifuna imvume kubalawuli bakahulumeni yokuthuthukisa i-microgrid yentuthuko entsha yokuhlala engazimele ezinkampanini zamandla ezikhona.
Iminyaka engaphezu kwekhulu, ohulumeni baye banikeza izinkampani zamandla amandla okuzidayisela ugesi ezindlini nasemabhizinisini, inqobo nje uma ohulumeni bevuma ukusebenzela wonke umuntu futhi babe ngaphansi kwemithethonqubo.
Kodwa le divayisi elula yaba yinkimbinkimbi nakakhulu lapho abanikazi bezindlu beqala ukufaka ama-solar panel namabhethri.Lokhu kuholele empini eshubile phakathi kwezinkampani zezinsiza kanye nezinkampani zelanga ezithengisa futhi zifake amasistimu ophahla lwezindlu namabhizinisi.
NgoLwesine, iSunnova Energy, enye yezinkampani ezinkulu zamaphaneli elanga aseMelika, icele iCalifornia Public Utilities Commission ukuthi iyivumele ukuthi iqhudelane ngqo nezinsiza eziphethwe abatshalizimali ukuze inikeze amandla ezindlini ezindlini zokuhlala ezintsha “njengezinsiza ezincane” ezizimele..Lena imodeli yebhizinisi engekho emthethweni ezindaweni eziningi zase-US.
Le nkampani ithe izonikeza lezo zakhamuzi ugesi oshibhe ngamaphesenti angama-20 kunamanani akhokhiswa izinsiza zabatshalizimali njengePacific Gas & Electric neSouthern California Edison. Le nkampani ithe izonikeza lezo zakhamuzi ugesi oshibhe ngamaphesenti angama-20 kunamanani akhokhiswa izinsiza zabatshalizimali njengePacific Gas & Electric neSouthern California Edison. I-Компания заявила, что будет предлагать этим жителям электроэнергию ku-20 процентов дешевле, чем тарифы, взимаемые взимаемые компьяпы i-inвесторам, такими как Pacific Gas & Electric kanye ne-Southern California Edison. Le nkampani ithe izohlinzeka ngogesi kulezi zakhamuzi ngamaphesenti angama-20 ngaphansi kwamazinga akhokhiswa izinsiza eziphethwe abatshalizimali njengePacific Gas & Electric kanye neSouthern California Edison. Компания заявила, что будет обеспечивать этих жителей электроэнергией на 20 процентов дешевле, чем взимают коммунальнпеные и песни м, такие как Pacific Gas & Electric kanye neSouthern California Edison. Le nkampani ithe izohlinzeka lezi zakhamuzi ngogesi ngaphansi kwamaphesenti angu-20 kunezinsiza eziphethwe abatshalizimali njenge-Pacific Gas & Electric ne-Southern California Edison charge.Uma kuvunywe abalawuli, amamodeli ezokuxhumana ezincane, abuye aziwe ngokuthi ama-microgrid, angaphazamisa ukukhula kwalezi zinsiza ezinkulu ngokuzinqabela ukufinyelela ezindlini ezintsha noma ukuziphoqa ukuthi zehlise amanani ukuze zihlale ebhizinisini.
Abaphathi beSunnova bathi indlela abafuna ukugunyazwa ngayo igunyazwe ngumthetho waseCalifornia oneminyaka ecishe ibe ngu-20 wezindawo zokungcebeleka eningizimu yeLake Tahoe.Ngaphezu kwalokho, inkampani ithi intuthuko kubuchwepheshe belanga nebhethri isho ukuthi imiphakathi ingaklanywa ukuthi ikhiqize ugesi owanele ukuze ihlangabezane nezidingo zayo ngezindleko eziphansi kunokuthembela kugridi.
“Uma bengafuni ukungikhetha, kufanele kube yilungelo labo lelo;uma bengafuni ukukukhetha lokho kufanele kube yilungelo labo,” kusho isikhulu seSunnova uJohn Berger.
Njengoba izindleko zamaphaneli elanga namabhethri zehla, idlanzana labanikazi bezindlu laphuma lingaxhunyiwe ku-inthanethi.Kodwa ukwenza kanjalo kungaba nzima noma kungenzeki.Abanye ohulumeni basekhaya banqabile izimvume zokwakha izindlu ezingaphandle kwegridi, besho izinkinga zempilo nokuphepha, bethi ukuxhumeka kwegridi kuyadingeka.
Kodwa ukuxhuma ikhaya kugridi kungabiza amashumi noma amakhulu ezinkulungwane zamaRandi, okusho ukuthi amasistimu angaphandle kwegridi angase ashibhe - ikakhulukazi kumasayithi asezindaweni ezikude noma lapho i-LAN yanele khona, kuzodingeka ukuthuthukiswa okukhulu ukuze kusetshenziswe okuningi ekhaya..
Ukufakwa ngaphandle kwegridi nakho kuyathandeka ngoba uma uhlelo selukhokhe, izindleko ze-O&M zivame ukuba nesizotha futhi zibikezelwe, futhi amanani ezinsiza angakhuphuka kakhulu.Izikweletu zikagesi zenyuke kakhulu ezinyangeni ezedlule ngenxa yokukhuphuka kwentengo yegesi ngenxa yempi yase-Ukraine.Ngokusho kwe-Energy Information Administration, ngoJuni isilinganiso sentengo kagesi ezweni lonke senyuke ngo-11% unyaka nonyaka.
Kodwa kunezinkinga ngensiza encane uSunnova athemba ukuyidala.Imibono ye-Topian yokukhiqiza ugesi lapho usetshenziswa khona ngokuvamile ingena ekunakekeleni nezinye izinkinga.Izinsiza eziningi ezincane ezalandela le modeli e-United States naseCanada kamuva zathathwa izinkampani ezinkulu zamandla.
I-Kirkwood mountain resort eduze neLake Tahoe eCalifornia isebenzise amandla amancane ukunika amandla izakhamuzi nezivakashi iminyaka eminingi.Kodwa ugesi ewukhiqizayo ngezinye izikhathi ubiza amasenti angu-70 nge-kilowatt-hora, okuphindwe kathathu kuya kahlanu kunaleyo ekhokhiswa izinsiza ezinkulu zombuso.Ekugcineni, iDolobha laseKirkwood lathatha lesi sisetshenziswa futhi laxhuma kugridi kazwelonke.
Indlela ye-Sunnova kuma-microgrid ingase ibe nesiphetho esifanayo.Kodwa izindleko zamaphaneli elanga namabhethri zehle kakhulu kule minyaka eyishumi edlule, okushiya amandla akhiqizwa isistimu ye-off-grid eshibhile kunangesikhathi kwakhiwa uhlelo lukadizili eKirkwood.
I-Sunnova ifake isicelo kwikhomishana yezinsiza zikahulumeni ukuze ithole imvume yokuba inkampani encane ngaphansi komthetho wezwe ofanayo noweKirkwood.UMnu. Berger uthe inkampani yakhe izosebenzisana nabathuthukisi ukufaka ama-solar panel namabhethri njengengxenye yokwakhiwa kwezindlu ezakhiweni ezinezindlu ezingaphansi kwezi-2,000.
Le nkampani, esekelwa okungenani umthuthukisi oyedwa omkhulu wezindlu, uLennar, uthe izocubungula i-Sunnova microgrid uma ivunywa ngabalawuli.
“Siyaziqhenya ngokusebenzisana no-Sunnova nokweseka abadlali abaseqophelweni eliphezulu njengoba belwela ukuxazulula ezinye zezinkinga ezibaluleke kakhulu emhlabeni,” kusho uSihlalo oPhethe weLennar uStuart Miller."Siyayazisa igridi yamanje futhi sinentshisekelo ezixazululweni ezintsha ze-microgrid ezingahambisana futhi zisekele amanethiwekhi okusetshenziswa kwendabuko futhi zisize ukubhekana nezinkinga zokuthembeka esimweni sezulu esibi kakhulu kanye nesidingo esikhulu."
IKhomishini Yezinsiza Zomphakathi ithe izosibuyekeza isicelo sikaSunnova kanti lolu hlelo luzohlanganisa nokuphawula komphakathi.Abamele inkampani ephethwe abatshalizimali bathe ngeke bakwazi ukuphawula ngalesi siphakamiso badinga isikhathi sokusicubungula.
Amaphaneli elanga namabhethri azofakwa ezindaweni ezivamile njengawo wonke amakhaya namakilabhu.Ngokusho kwabaphathi beSunnova, zonke lezi zisetshenziswa zizohlanganiswa zibe yisethi eyodwa.Inkampani ilindele ukuthi ama-microgrid anjalo acimeke imizuzu engama-30 noma ngaphansi ngonyaka, uma kuqhathaniswa nesilinganiso samahora amabili ngonyaka ezinsizeni ezinkulu eziphethwe abatshalizimali eCalifornia.
Abathengi bazothola isikweletu sikagesi esenziwe lula esibonisa ukuthi ungakanani ugesi okhiqizwa uhlelo esizeni sabo, ungakanani abawusebenzisayo, kanye nenzuzo yabo yonke noma izindleko zabo.
Amakhaya amasha kanye nentuthuko kunikeza ithuba langempela kakhulu lama-microgrid, njengoba amakhaya akhona ngokuvamile asevele ehlinzekwa umasipala ophethwe ngabatshalizimali noma izinsiza zokusebenzisana.
I-Sunnova ithi izinhlelo zayo ngeke zihlukaniswe ngokugcwele.Uhlela ukuwaxhuma kugridi yezwe enkulu ukuze adlulisele amandla engeziwe kwezinye izinsiza noma aqoqe amandla uma kunesimo esiphuthumayo. Kodwa amasistimu ayo ngeke abe ngabanikazi noma asetshenziswe abahlinzeki bamandla abathathu abakhulu esifundazweni - i-Pacific Gas & Electric, i-Southern California Edison noma i-San Diego Gas & Electric. Kodwa amasistimu ayo ngeke abe ngabanikazi noma asetshenziswe abahlinzeki bamandla abathathu abakhulu esifundazweni - i-Pacific Gas & Electric, i-Southern California Edison noma i-San Diego Gas & Electric. Но его системы не будут принадлежать или эксплуатироваться тремя основными поставщиками электроэнергии в штате — Pacific Gas & Electric, Southern Diego Gas & San Francisco. Kodwa amasistimu ayo ngeke abe ngabanikazi noma asetshenziswe abahlinzeki bakagesi abathathu abakhulu bezwe - i-Pacific Gas & Electric, i-Southern California Edison noma i-San Diego Gas & Electric. Но его системы не будут принадлежать трем основным поставщикам электроэнергии в штате — Pacific Gas & Electric, Southern California Edison noma San Diego Gas & Electric — hhayi ukwehla. Kodwa amasistimu ayo ngeke abe ngabanikazi noma asetshenziswe abahlinzeki bakagesi abathathu bezwe - i-Pacific Gas & Electric, i-Southern California Edison, noma i-San Diego Gas & Electric.
Ngokusekelwe esilinganisweni sebhili kagesi yaseCalifornia ngoJuni, lokho kuzonciphisa isikweletu sikagesi esijwayelekile sasendlini yaseCalifornia ngamaRandi angama-60 ngenyanga, kusho uSunnova.UMnu. Berger uthe ukukhuphuka kwakamuva kwezilinganiso zenzalo kuwubufakazi bokuphakama kwendlela kaSunnova.
“Abantu ngeke bathole izikweletu ezengeziwe zamandla kagesi njalo ngekota,” esho."Inqubomgomo mayelana nalokhu idinga ukushintsha."
Imboni yezinsiza kanye nabalawuli bayo, okuhlanganisa ne-California Public Utilities Commission, banentshisekelo yokugcina isimo esikhona.Lezi zinkampani zivamise ukuba zinkulu futhi zibe namandla kakhulu kwezombusazwe kunezifaki zelanga ezisophahleni ezifana ne-Sunnova noma i-Sunrun, izifaki zelanga ezinkulu kunazo zonke ezweni.
UBernard McNamee uyilungu langaphambili le-Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, eyengamele izintambo zikagesi, amapayipi egesi, nezinye izingxenye zemboni yamandla.Imodeli yensiza elawulwa ngokwesiko ingase ibonakale isiphelelwe yisikhathi, wathi, kodwa iqinisekisa ukuthi wonke umuntu, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi uhola malini, uyakwazi ukufinyelela inethiwekhi ethembeke emhlabeni wonke.
"Kudingeka siqinisekise ukuthi uhlelo luklanyelwe ukunikeza amandla athembekile, athengekayo kuwo wonke amaklayenti," kusho uMnu McNamee, uzakwethu enkampanini yabameli iMcGuireWoods.“Abantu bajikijela izinto yonke indawo ngokuncintisana nezimakethe.Zonke lezi zinto ziyinkimbinkimbi.”
Kodwa uMcNamee uvumile ukuthi abalawuli badinga ukuthola ukuthi benzeni ngobuchwepheshe obusha obudumile, njengamaphaneli elanga nezinhlelo zamabhethri, ezingavumela amanye amakhaya noma imiphakathi ukuthi ikhiqize ugesi owanele ukuze usebenze ngokujwayelekile ngaphandle kokukhipha amandla abo amaningi kugridi.isikhathi.
"Abalawuli bazama ukuthola ukuthi bangahlanganisa kanjani lobu buchwepheshe obusha," kusho uMnu McNamee."Yilokhu okudingeka sikulwe njengezwe, njengombuso."
Izinsiza zicela abalawuli ukuthi behlise isinxephezelo esitholwa abanikazi bezindlu ngenxa yamandla elanga engeziwe afunzwa amasistimu abo ophahleni kugridi.Izinkampani zithi amakhasimende anama-solar panel athola amakhredithi kagesi amaningi, kodwa awafaki imali eyanele ezindlekweni zokugcina izintambo zikagesi nezinye izinto zenethiwekhi.
Ikhomishana yaseCalifornia Public Utilities Commission kulindeleke ukuthi ikhiphe isiphakamiso sesinxephezelo solar ophahleni ngemuva nje kokuthi ikhansele ukunikezwa okugxekwe izinkampani eziningi nabanikazi bezindlu ngokuba nenzuzo kakhulu enhlanganweni.
Izinkampani ze-solar, ezikhule ngokushesha eminyakeni yamuva, zibhekana nezinselele zazo, hhayi okungenani ukuzama ukuthola indlela yokuhlala zenza inzuzo.Abaningi babo bathembele emalini yentela enikezwa uhulumeni wobumbano ukukhuthaza ukusetshenziswa kwamandla avuselelekayo.Umthetho Wokwehliswa Kokwehla Kwamanani Emali usanda kusayinwa njengomthetho nguMongameli u-Biden uye wanweba futhi welula le migqa yezikweletu.
Ukwakhiwa nokusebenza kwama-microgrid kunganikeza imali engenayo eqinile ezinkampanini ezifana ne-Sunnova.Lokhu kungase kuguqule ngokuyisisekelo izinkampani ze-solar ezisophahleni zibe yizinkampani ezisiza abantu kudala beziphikisa.
