System Operator Dynamically balancing supply and demand Grid scale storage Long-duration storage that is flexible and readily dispatchable O & G Production Abated through CCUS, methane reduction, and other Scope 1+2 levers Renewable and low-carbon production Large -scale wind, solar, nuclear, geothermal, and other low-carbon production Generation High-efficiency generation that works dynamically with conversion, storage, and the grid Domestic supply Domestic user Multi-agent interaction Commercial and Industrial users Transmission High-voltage bulk carrying power across regions CCUS at point of energy generation Conversion Electrons converted into highest value form (e.g. Power-to-X) CCUS at point of energy generation Domestic user Distribution Lower voltage network Figure 13 A vision of the future energy system Three transformations that will characterize the future energy system At the systems level, the future of energy system will become more electric, distributed, and variable. At the operational level, it will need to be efficient, resilient, and supported by the right infrastructure. At the global level, EMDCs have the potential to play a central role in the energy system of the future. 3. 2. 1. AI can help to orchestrate the future energy system, leveraging its abilities for complex analysis and optimization 48 Powering Possible 47
