Notice of Request for Information (RFI) on Prediction of Solar Variability for Better Grid Integration
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Solar Energy Technologies Office (SETO) is issuing this request for information (RFI) to solicit feedback from industry, academia, research laboratories, government agencies, and other stakeholders. This RFI will inform SETO's strategic planning on research related to the integration of solar energy resources. Specifically, this RFI will inform SETO's strategies relating to prediction of solar irradiance reaching the surface of the earth, and power output from solar generation plants, using either photovoltaic (PV) or concentrating solar power (CSP) technologies. Improving solar generation prediction will better inform grid operators as they consider the impacts of solar power variability on grid planning and operations technologies, as well as the owners and operators of utility-scale plants and aggregators of distributed PV systems.
Energy Conservation Program: Test Procedure for External Power Supplies
On December 6, 2019, the U.S. Department of Energy published a proposal to amend the test procedures for external power supplies. The proposal provided an opportunity for submitting written comments, data, and information by February 4, 2020. On January 21, 2020, DOE received a request from the USB Implementers Forum, Inc. to extend the public comment period by 14 days. DOE has reviewed this request and is granting the 14-day extension.
Commission Information Collection Activities; Request for Emergency Extension of FERC-923
In compliance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC) has submitted a request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for a three-month emergency extension of the following information collection: FERC-923, Communication of Operational Information between Natural Gas Pipelines and Electric Transmission Operators. The requested extension would enable the collection to remain active while FERC completes the pending PRA renewal process. No changes are being made to the reporting and recordkeeping requirements.
