Department of Energy on December 28 proposed new energy-efficiency standards for three categories of distribution transformers to improve the resiliency of America's power grid, lower utility bills, and significantly reduce domestic carbon-dioxide (CO2) emissions. ...
The microgrid will integrate existing distributed backup generators with a new 5 megawatt solar array and an 11.6MWh BESS to power the entire site in the event of a loss of utility (LoU). Planned improvements also feature the deployment of new power distribution transformers, Smart controls in 10 buildings across campus, LED lighting improvements ...
“Throughout our history, Tantalus centered its purpose on developing technology solutions in support of the public power and electric cooperative market segment by transforming existing distribution grids into digital networks capable of resolving an increasing number of challenges confronting the utility ...
The report finds that 47 states, as well as the District of Columbia, took actions related to grid modernization during Q2 2021 (see figure below), with the greatest number of actions relating to energy storage deployment (66), utility business model reforms (40), smart grid deployment (39), distribution system planning (33), and energy storage interconnection rules (31). ...
90,000 crore package would provide only a temporary relief to power distribution companies but not long-term stability, India Ratings and Research (Ind-Ra) said on Tuesday. ...
As part of the project Powersystems will also be installing the client’s High Voltage (HV) and Low Voltage (LV) infrastructure, which, will include high voltage substations, transformers, LV distribution switchgear and LV cables connecting to 80 kW electric vehicle charge points. ...
With rapidly increasing demand for renewable energy, electric vehicles and energy storage, ANM Strata 2.0 promises to accelerate the transformation of distribution network operators into distribution system operators (DSOs). ...
S&C's new TranShield Transformer Protector eliminates nuisance fuse operations at the grid's edge and drastically reduces unnecessary maintenance expenses. Industry data show that up to 70% of overhead distribution transformer fuse operations are classified as nuisance outages, where no other repair work is needed aside from fuse replacement. ...
Faraday Grid has announced an agreement with the UK’s leading distribution network operator, UK Power Networks, for it to trial the world’s first Faraday Grid, a ground-breaking technology that could redefine how the electricity grid works. ...
The massive deployment of distributed energy resources (DER) and two-way power flow is intensifying the need for strong distribution transformer infrastructure. One of the biggest upshots of distributed generation is the demand for smart/solid-state transformers for voltage management in smart grids. ...
The paper also looks at the role of smart technology to transform grids as they continue to reflect the changes in the way energy is generated, distributed, traded, managed and stored. ...
GRID20/20®, Inc., a leading distribution transformer monitoring provider and Dominion Voltage, Inc. (DVI), a subsidiary of Dominion Energy (NYSE: D) and leader in Volt/VAR optimization "VVO" solutions, have teamed up to address the growing energy efficiency needs throughout ...
Muratori also looked at the impact PEV charging might have on a residential distribution transformer. In this case, a problem arises when motorists gathered in a geographic area began buying these vehicles and plugging them in to recharge upon returning home a practice known as uncoordinated charging. Even without large numbers of PEVs on the road, this ...
But while almost all solar displaces marginal fuel costs and can reduce peak demand by varying degrees, the ability to provide increased grid reliability or defer capital costs in the transmission and distribution systems is very dependent on where the facility is located. ...
