Generation
Given the significant risks associated with nuclear power and its associated waste, as seen most recently with Fukashima in Japan, and the closing of coal powered utility plants, alternative generation sources must be considered. Micro grids, co-gen facilities, wind and solar are all being used to meet current and future energy needs of the world. DC-NEXUS follows developments in generation and provides information on how others are integrating these new forms of generation to increase electrical generation capacity.
