This entry is based on the study, “Cost-minimized combinations of wind, solar, and electrochemical storage, powering the grid up to 99.9% of the time“. Description To summarize, it is a […]
I still feel much of what I’ve written is not accessible to the general public. This post will focus on an easily understandable overview of what defines a natural economy […]
As I’ve covered before, a computational economy uses preemption and priority levels for its allocation schemes. Priority levels are used to determine, when demand exceeds constraints, which demands to fulfill […]
