Funding Goals
OPTIMAL UTILIZATION OF ALL GRID ASSETS REQUIRES A FUNDAMENTAL SHIFT IN GRID MANAGEMENT ROOTED IN AN UNDERSTANDING OF ASSET RISK AND SYSTEM RISK. ARPA-E SEEKS INNOVATIVE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS THAT (I) REPRESENT THE RELATIVE DELIVERY RISK OF EACH ASSET AND (II) BALANCE THE COLLECTIVE RISK OF ALL ASSETS ACROSS THE GRID. A RISK-DRIVEN PARADIGM WILL ALLOW OPERATORS TO FULLY UNDERSTAND THE TRUE LIKELIHOOD OF MAINTAINING A SUPPLY-DEMAND BALANCE AND SYSTEM RELIABILITY; THIS IS CRITICAL FOR ALL POWER SYSTEMS AND IS ESSENTIAL FOR GRIDS WITH HIGH LEVELS OF STOCHASTIC RESOURCES.
