Accessed July 26, 2005. 2 NASA Science Mission Directorate, Earth-Sun System Applied Sciences Program, Energy Management Program Element, FY 2005-2009 Plan, v1.1, March 16, 2005. 3 National Research Council, Space Studies Board, Board on Earth Sciences and Resources, Assessment of the Usefulness and Availability of NASA's Earth and Space Science Mission Data, 2002. 4 Ibid. resources provide unique, objective data that have the additional advantage of yielding global, homogeneous, and repetitive coverage. In terms of energy management, NASA Earth science resources can have a role in identifying energy resources; providing historical, near-real time, and forecasted information for planning and operations; monitoring and assessing environmental impacts; minimizing impacts on energy infrastructure from events; and assessing carbon sequestration opportunities. The demand for more detailed weather and sector-specific information such as solar radiation information is increasing as energy technologies become more advanced. With the globalization of energy technologies, especially in developing countries, climatological information is needed to fill gaps and provide globally consistent information for energy project development and operation.5 The Energy Management Program Element leverages NASA observations and predictions related to atmospheric composition, carbon cycle and ecosystems, climate change and variability, water and energy cycles, weather, sun-solar systems research, and Earth surface and interior. The Energy Management Program Element is involved in a number of energy management projects such as production of the Surface meteorology and Solar Energy (SSE) data set for solar and wind industries, support for the National Energy Modeling System (NEMS), and data input for short- and long-term load forecasting, among others. Active partnerships have been established with government and non- government organizations both domestically and internationally, including the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)’s National Renewable Energy Lab, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, and Energy Information Administration (EIA); Cana...

  • Electric Storage Resources Developer interconnecting an electric storage resource shall establish an operating range in Appendix C of its LGIA that specifies a minimum state of charge and a maximum state of charge between which the electric storage resource will be required to provide primary frequency response consistent with the conditions set forth in Articles 9.5.5, 9.5.5.1, 9.5.5.2, and 9.5.5.3 of this Agreement. Appendix C shall specify whether the operating range is static or dynamic, and shall consider (1) the expected magnitude of frequency deviations in the interconnection; (2) the expected duration that system frequency will remain outside of the deadband parameter in the interconnection; (3) the expected incidence of frequency deviations outside of the deadband parameter in the interconnection; (4) the physical capabilities of the electric storage resource; (5) operational limitations of the electric storage resources due to manufacturer specification; and (6) any other relevant factors agreed to by the NYISO, Connecting Transmission Owner, and Developer. If the operating range is dynamic, then Appendix C must establish how frequently the operating range will be reevaluated and the factors that may be considered during its reevaluation. Developer’s electric storage resource is required to provide timely and sustained primary frequency response consistent with Article 9.5.5.2 of this Agreement when it is online and dispatched to inject electricity to the New York State Transmission System and/or receive electricity from the New York State Transmission System. This excludes circumstances when the electric storage resource is not dispatched to inject electricity to the New York State Transmission System and/or dispatched to receive electricity from the New York State Transmission System. If Developer’s electric storage resource is charging at the time of a frequency deviation outside of its deadband parameter, it is to increase (for over-frequency deviations) or decrease (for under-frequency deviations) the rate at which it is charging in accordance with its droop parameter. Developer’s electric storage resource is not required to change from charging to discharging, or vice versa, unless the response necessitated by the droop and deadband settings requires it to do so and it is technically capable of making such a transition.

  • Resourcing 5.1. NHS England may, at its discretion provide support or staff to the CCG. NHS England may, when exercising such discretion, take into account, any relevant factors (including without limitation the size of the CCG, the number of Primary Medical Services Contracts held and the need for the Local NHS England Team to continue to deliver the Reserved Functions).

  • Other Resources Participant shall be responsible for providing such other resources as may be reasonably necessary for connection with the implementation of the HIE, including but not limited to making available such Participant staff members as may be necessary for such purposes.
