Izinqubomgomo Zikazwelonke Zokugcina Amandla Ekhaya

Phakathi neminyaka embalwa edlule, umsebenzi wenqubomgomo yezinga lokugcinwa kwamandla uthuthukile.Lokhu kubangelwa kakhulu indikimba ekhulayo yocwaningo ngobuchwepheshe bokugcina amandla kanye nokwehliswa kwezindleko.Ezinye izici, ezihlanganisa imigomo nezidingo zombuso, nazo zibe nomthelela ekwandeni komsebenzi.

Ukugcinwa kwamandla kungakhuphula ukuqina kwegridi kagesi.Inikeza amandla okusekela lapho ukukhiqizwa kwesikhungo sikagesi kuphazamiseka.Kungase futhi kunciphise ukuphakama kokusetshenziswa kwesistimu.Ngenxa yalesi sizathu, ukugcinwa kubhekwa njengokubalulekile ekushintsheni kwamandla ahlanzekile.Njengoba izinsiza ezengeziwe ezivuselelekayo ziza ku-inthanethi, isidingo sokuguquguquka kwesistimu siyakhula.Ubuchwepheshe besitoreji bungahlehlisa futhi isidingo sokuthuthukiswa kwesistimu ebizayo.

Nakuba izinqubomgomo zezinga lombuso zihluka ngokuya ngobubanzi kanye nolaka, zonke zihloselwe ukuthuthukisa ukufinyelela okuqhudelanayo kokugcinwa kwamandla.Ezinye izinqubomgomo zihloselwe ukwandisa ukufinyelela endaweni yokugcina kuyilapho ezinye ziklanyelwe ukuqinisekisa ukuthi ukugcinwa kwamandla kuhlanganiswe ngokugcwele nenqubo yokulawula.Izinqubomgomo zombuso zingase zisekelwe emthethweni, umyalelo wokuphatha, uphenyo, noma uphenyo lwekhomishana yosizo.Ezimweni eziningi, zidizayinelwe ukusiza esikhundleni sezimakethe ezincintisanayo ngezinqubomgomo ezicacisayo futhi ezisiza ukutshalwa kwezimali kwesitoreji.Ezinye izinqubomgomo ziphinde zifaka phakathi izikhuthazo zokutshalwa kwezimali kwesitoreji ngokuklama isilinganiso kanye noxhaso lwezezimali.

Njengamanje, izifunda eziyisithupha zamukele izinqubomgomo zokugcina amandla.I-Arizona, California, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, kanye ne-Oregon yizifundazwe ezamukele izinqubomgomo.Isifunda ngasinye samukele indinganiso ecacisa ingxenye yamandla avuselelekayo kuphothifoliyo yaso.Izifundazwe ezimbalwa nazo zibuyekeze izidingo zazo zokuhlela izinsiza ukuze zifake isitoreji.I-Pacific Northwest National Laboratory ikhombe izinhlobo ezinhlanu zezinqubomgomo zokugcina amandla ezingeni likahulumeni.Lezi zinqubomgomo ziyahlukahluka ngokuya ngobudlova, futhi azizona zonke iziyalezo.Kunalokho, bahlonza izidingo zokuqonda okuthuthukisiwe kwegridi futhi banikeze uhlaka locwaningo lwangomuso.Lezi zinqubomgomo zingasebenza futhi njengepulani lezinye izifundazwe okufanele zilandelwe.

NgoJulayi, iMassachusetts yaphasisa i-H.4857, okuhloswe ngayo ukukhulisa okuhlosiwe kokuthengwa kwesitoreji sombuso ku-1,000 MW ngo-2025. Umthetho uqondisa iKhomishini Yezinsiza Zombuso (PUC) ukuthi ibeke imithetho ekhuthaza ukuthengwa kwezinsiza zokugcinwa kwamandla.Iphinde iqondise i-CPUC ukuthi icabangele ikhono lokugcina amandla lokuhlehlisa noma ukuqeda ukutshalwa kwezimali kwengqalasizinda esekelwe kuphethiloli.

E-Nevada, i-PUC yombuso yamukele umgomo wokuthengwa kwempahla we-100 MW ngo-2020. Lokhu kuhlosiwe kuhlukaniselwe amaphrojekthi axhumene nokuhanjiswa, amaphrojekthi axhumene nokusabalalisa, kanye namaphrojekthi axhumene namakhasimende.I-CPUC iphinde yakhipha isiqondiso sokuhlola ukonga izindleko kumaphrojekthi wesitoreji.Umbuso uphinde wasungula imithetho yezinqubo zokuxhumanisa ezilula.I-Nevada iphinda ivimbele amanani asekelwe kuphela kubunikazi besitoreji samandla samakhasimende.

I-Clean Energy Group ibisebenzisana nabenzi benqubomgomo, abalawuli, nabanye ababambiqhaza ukuze ikhuthaze ukwanda kokuthunyelwa kobuchwepheshe bokugcina amandla.Iphinde yasebenza ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukukhokhwa ngokulinganayo kwezibonelelo zesitoreji, okuhlanganisa nokuqoshwa kwemiphakathi ehola kancane.Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-Clean Energy Group ithuthukise uhlelo oluyisisekelo lwesaphulelo sokugcina amandla, olufana nezaphulelo ezinikezwa ngemuva kwemitha yokuthunyelwa kwelanga ezifundazweni eziningi.
