Current
The current energy market heavily relies on our finite resources centralizing the production of energy to feed our national electric grid. Energy production is operated on one site that produces the product and then transports that product to the various locations where demand is high.
Future
A flexible energy system implements a variety of energy sources (both spatially and temporally) allowing for the reduction of finite resource consumption. The energy production for these grids can distributed at a variety of scales in order to provide a balanced framework of energy generation. This energy can then be fed through local and national energy systems.
