From Simulation to Grid: Demonstrating the Potential of Long-Duration Energy Storage
October 29, 2026
As more renewable energy comes onto the grid, the hard question isn’t only how to generate clean electricity. It’s how to store that electricity until it’s needed. Long-duration energy storage can make the grid more resilient, support existing transmission and distribution infrastructure, and let a greater share of low-cost, variable renewable energy onto the grid. […]

Cogeneration Power Plants: Improving Operations in Complex Conditions
October 26, 2023
Much of the world’s natural gas power generation infrastructure uses gas turbines connected to Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSGs). These HRSGs capture waste heat from gas turbine exhaust and use the heat to generate steam for cogeneration, drive a steam turbine (in a combined cycle plant), or a combination of both. This process recovers most […]

When to use Physical System Simulation?
August 1, 2022
Engineers often explain the model-based engineering design process with a graphical representation called the “Design V.” In part 2 of our blog series, we offer a new perspective of the “Design V”, including how and when physical system simulation is essential to the development and lifecycle of a product.
