SAN RAFAEL at CONCORD, Calif.<\/strong> \u2014 Noong Agosto 6, 2024, inilabas ng MCE ang isang bagong gawang all-electric clean energy na bahay na ibebenta sa isang mas mababang kita na unang bumibili ng bahay sa Richmond, California. Ang makabagong diskarte ay nilayon na magsilbi bilang isang modelo upang matulungan ang mga bumibili ng bahay sa bawat antas ng kita na ma-access ang malinis, all-electric na teknolohiya para sa kanilang mga tahanan.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t"Ang mga virtual power plant ay isang umuusbong na solusyon sa malinis na paglipat ng enerhiya ng California," sabi ni Noem\u00ed Gallardo, Komisyoner ng Komisyon sa Enerhiya ng California. "Ang mga ito ay kumakatawan sa isang promising na hakbang pasulong sa pagsuporta sa ating malinis na enerhiya sa hinaharap. Ipinagmamalaki ng CEC na suportahan ang mga proyektong tulad nito, na tumutulong na matiyak ang pagiging maaasahan ng grid sa panahon ng matinding mga kaganapan at nagpo-promote ng pantay na pag-access sa mga solusyon sa malinis na enerhiya.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Pinondohan sa bahagi ng Komisyon sa Enerhiya ng California, na pinamumunuan, sa pakikipagtulungan, ng ZNE Alliance at MCE, ang Richmond Advanced Energy Community Project ay nag-aalok ng mga piling residente at negosyo ng Richmond ng isang natatanging pagkakataon upang makuryente at makatipid ng pera sa kanilang mga buwanang singil. Ang ilan sa mga tahanan ay muling itinatayo ng RCF Connects gamit ang isang makabagong tool sa pagpopondo na tinatawag na social impact bond.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\u201cGamit ang groundbreaking na proyektong ito, nakakahanap kami ng mga malikhaing solusyon sa aming mga layunin sa pabahay at malinis na enerhiya sa Richmond habang nagbibigay ng abot-kayang landas sa pagmamay-ari ng bahay,\u201d sabi ni Jim Becker, Executive Director ng RCF Connects. "Kasama ang MCE at ang aming mga kasosyo, mayroon kaming pagkakataong mag-upgrade ng hanggang 100 bahay at 20 negosyo, kabilang ang 10 dati nang inabandona. Ang mga property na ito ay makaka-plug sa Virtual Power Plant ng MCE."\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Ang Virtual Power Plant (VPP) ng MCE ay tumutulong sa mga kalahok na makatipid ng pera gamit ang malinis na teknolohiya ng enerhiya at makatanggap ng buwanang mga kredito sa kanilang mga singil sa enerhiya. Bilang kapalit, pinapayagan nila ang kanilang mga smart energy device na tumugon sa mga signal ng MCE na maglipat ng load batay sa mga pangangailangan ng grid. Kabilang dito ang pagbabawas ng paggamit ng enerhiya sa mas mahal na mga oras ng araw, pagpapadala ng enerhiya pabalik sa grid kapag kinakailangan, at pagbabawas ng grid strain kapag ang mga kaganapan sa panahon ay nagbabanta sa pagkawala.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t"Ang aming Virtual Power Plant ay nagkokonekta sa mga ipinamahagi na mapagkukunan ng enerhiya tulad ng solar, imbakan ng baterya, mga de-kuryenteng sasakyan, mga electric water heater, at mga heat pump sa isang sistema na maaaring ilipat kapag kinakailangan," sabi ni Vicken Kasarjian, MCE COO. "Kapag pinagsama, ang maliliit na mapagkukunang ito ay maaaring magbigay ng malinis na kuryente sa grid sa mga oras ng peak kapag mataas ang demand at kumukuha ng enerhiya mula sa grid kapag may mga sobrang kondisyon sa grid dahil sa mataas na henerasyon at mababang load."\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Ang Richmond Advanced Energy Community ay sinusuportahan ng isang $5 milyon na grant mula sa California Energy Commission at hanggang $2.8 milyon sa pagtutugma ng pagpopondo mula sa iba't ibang kasosyo kabilang ang Lungsod ng Richmond, CalEPA, at MCE. Ang proyekto ay naglalayong tumulong na lumikha ng isang mas malinis, mas maaasahang electric grid habang tinutugunan din ang mga pangangailangan sa pabahay na mababa ang kita.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Tungkol sa MCE: Ang MCE ay isang pampublikong ahensya na hindi pangkalakal at ang ginustong tagapagbigay ng kuryente para sa mahigit 585,000 account ng customer at 1.5 milyong residente at negosyo sa mga county ng Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, at Solano. Itinatakda ang pamantayan para sa malinis na enerhiya sa California simula noong 2010, nangunguna ang MCE na may 60-100% renewable power sa matatag na rate, nagsisilbi sa 1400 MW peak load, makabuluhang binabawasan ang mga greenhouse emissions, at muling namumuhunan ng milyun-milyon sa mga lokal na programa.
