South Africa is one of the most popular countries for investment in renewable energy. In 2014, the country received US$5.5 billion towards renewable energy projects. Renewable energy in South Africa has the potential to increase access to electricity in rural areas because of its suitability for off-grid and small-scale solutions. The barriers of renewable energy in the country include lack of political stability and capacity, marginalization, corruption, poverty, and environmental degradati. [pdf]

The IEC 61850 standard enables many features such as interoperability, seamless communication networks, object-oriented design, systematic factory and site acceptance testing. IEDs manufacturers add several functions to use these features and to exchange data with upper levels, e.g. station level. Clearly, the. . The smart grid can use SAS features to rapidly deploy several services and functions in transmission and distribution networks and control. . Modern SAS are smarter with software enabled devices, digital sampling and seamless communication networks. These systems provide useful information for the smart grid applications and. [pdf]
Estimation of the Overall Grid Status Regionally collected data from modern smart substations, through the routed messages (routed GOOSE and SV), can help to manage protection and control strategies in real time with large power grids.
Monitoring of the parameters associated with the smart grid and power management of RERs The suggested prototype also offers features for managing and controlling smart grids linked with a substation. The monitoring of the integrated smart grids into the PDN is also the focus of the proposed study.
Regionally collected data from modern smart substations, through the routed messages (routed GOOSE and SV), can help to manage protection and control strategies in real time with large power grids. The overall state of the grid therefore can be estimated before appearance of reliability issues, such as cascaded failure or blackouts.
The proposed study implements IoT technology for power parameters monitoring of substations and smart grids for their effective use, as it considers four types of load management, including industrial, domestic, commercial, and electric vehicles, with the aid of IoT technology to avoid power fluctuations and contingencies.
IoT-Enabled Smart Substation Monitoring and Control: This study also contributed to forming an IoT-based system for monitoring and managing numerous substation characteristics. This platform enables PDCs to remotely monitor voltage, current, power production, and energy usage inside substations by installing IoT sensors and modules.
The suggested system utilizes a customized software-defined networking technology, enabling seamless power grid integration with an efficient and real-time wireless communication architecture. The suggested approach represents a significant step toward implementing smart grid infrastructure.

Mexico is successfully increasing its renewable energy capacity year-on-year, mostly centered around solar and wind power. However, its battery storage industry is still small, with most renewable energy being sent directly to the grid as it is produced. The government is aiming to produce 50% of its electricity from green. . Mexico has extremely favorable wind and solar conditions for power generation in much of the country, making it attractive to foreign investors. Mexico held its first renewable energy auction. . Progress in battery materials and related technologies is making them more attractive, while the decline in battery costs is encouraging smaller energy companies to invest. The. . While we expect battery storage to add value to Mexico’s renewable energy market, there are still some challenges and unknowns due to the recent scaling of new battery technology. The degradation rate for lithium batteries is. [pdf]
As Mexico establishes itself as a regional renewable energy hub, we expect battery storage to become an essential means for enhancing the flexibility of its grid system to provide more versatile energy delivery across the country.

However, we expect Mexico to develop its energy storage technologies significantly over the next decade, as well as its lithium mining industry, as it increases its renewable energy capacity as part of a global green energy transition.
An energy storage system deployed by Quartux. Image: Quartux. System integrator Quartux will soon deploy the largest battery system in the Mexican energy storage market, the company’s managing director told Energy-Storage.news, discussing opportunities and challenges in the country.
That model has also been launched by other players in the Mexican energy storage market, most recently renewable energy company Fotowatio Renewable Ventures (FRV) together with US-based energy analytics and software company Energy Toolbase and local developer Ecopulse.
By flattening your daytime load profile with solar and shifting when your facility pulls power from the grid with battery energy storage systems (BESS) you can increase your energy resilience and significantly lower energy costs. Protect your facilities from grid outages, reduce energy costs, and increase profits.
