– Active. The goal of this roadmap is to stimulate discussion and challenge ideas around the deployment of power and energy technologies. The IEEE PES (Power & Energy Society) Horizon 2050 team gives a general indication of when technologies could be expected for deployment, and the team takes a step forward and tries to group research and standard development needs for the required power and energy technologies in the future. The reader shall not consider these proposals as rigid temporal indications, but as relative timeframes. This information can be challenged by any reader, and the IEEE PES Horizon 2050 team hopes that these challenges will lead to productive initiatives to select future investment in innovation and standards.
