Study: New, Market-Driven U.S. Power Sources Do Not Affect Grid Reliability

Study:  New, Market-Driven U.S. Power Sources Do Not Affect Grid Reliability

SUGAR LAND--June 22, 2017--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--A recent study by Analysis Group (Boston, Massachusetts) says that state and federal policies to promote renewable energy portfolios are not the cause for the retirement of many U.S. coal-fired and nuclear plants and that the introduction of new power technologies does not affect grid reliability. The study, commissioned by trade organizations American Wind Energy Association (Washington, D.C.) and Advanced Energy Economy (Washington, D.C.) is largely seen as a preemptive strike against a study ordered by U.S. Energy Secretary Rick Perry to examine whether policies favoring wind and solar power are hastening the retirement of coal and nuclear plants, which could be detrimental to grid reliability.
