💡Did You Know? 🔋 The absence of a robust UPS and DC Backup power systems can lead to significant financial losses in power transmission and distribution, Water, Energy, Transportation, Industrial Manufacturing plants etc. Here’s a breakdown of potential losses, 👉 Equipment Damage: Replacement and repair costs. 👉 Operational Downtime 👉 Increased Maintenance 👉 Regulatory Penalties 👉 Reputation Impact Total Estimated Loss will be in several million dollars.   Investing in a reliable UPS and DC Backup Power Systems is not just a necessity—it's a smart financial decision to protect critical equipment, ensure continuous operations, and safeguard your company's bottom line. #DidYouKnow #UPSsystems #DCBackupPower #PowerStability #InfrastructureProtection #FinancialImpact #IndustryInsights #Statron #ReliablePower #Statron STATRON AG STATRON Middle East FZCO

Many utilities ignore distribution system faults outside the substation fence line. But as Ryan Conger explained in his presentation at CIGRE USNC Grid of the Future Symposium this week, understanding distribution fault current returning through the earth back to the substation ground grid is becoming increasingly important.

I was sitting in a venue and the lights were dimming and getting brighter and someone asked what was going on. I said power fluctuation. Sometimes, there can be sudden surges or drops in the amount of electricity flowing through the wires, like when there's too much power or not enough. Also consider that a surge is powerful enough, it can overload electrical systems and equipment, leading to overheating and potentially causing fires and damaging equipment.   I further explained, a battery storage system helps keep things smooth on this electrical highway. When there's too much electricity (a surge), the battery quickly absorbs the extra power. And when there's not enough electricity (a drop), the battery releases some of its stored power to make up for it.  This is only ONE of the ways grid scale BESS will improve our electrification resiliency. The battery storage acts like a guardian for the grid, making sure that the flow of electricity stays steady and safe. It's like a big voltage surge protector for grid scale protection.   #BESS #ESS #energystorage #lithiumionbattery #safety #nfpa #nema

Voltage optimization is an underutilized tool utilities and cooperatives alike are missing out on. Voltage reduction is a blunt tool used to deal with peak demand periods. DVI Grid Solution's EDGE platform upgrades that tool to handle all kinds of grid challenges including carbon reduction, demand reduction, and emergency contingency. Turning voltage reduction into voltage optimization is the key to enabling the grid for tomorrow. #utilities #cooperatives #optimization

Upgrading or replacing substations. Using the most up-to-date technology to re-route power during an outage. Burying the lines. These are just some of the ways we’re using our #ReliabilityRoadmap to bring you safe, reliable power. How do we plan to get there? https://lnkd.in/gP8TMDd8 #ReliableElectricity #ElectricReliability

EV charging demand is growing faster than many utilities can supply additional infrastructure. 2G Energy provides both stationary and portable EV charging solutions utilizing natural gas, propane or hydrogen.

Setting up an effective #emergency power supply is essential in the first few hours of a disaster, as this is needed for a large part of the immediate aid and reconstruction measures. ⚠ Up until now, diesel-powered units have generally been used for this purpose. They have to be refueled daily and can only be operated by qualified personnel. ✅ In the future, however, #customized solutions will be used that are able to ideally meet the requirements of the various areas of application. As part of quickly deployable interconnected systems, low-emission gensets (PGM low emissionsV) and power storage systems (ESM hybridV) from VINCORION can cover even large electricity demands much more efficiently, ensuring greater energy self-sufficiency and fewer logistics in operation.

The primary drivers for this technology are to improve the safety of utility workers, shorten the overall feeder outage duration to reduce the stress on the grid and improve network resiliency. This is particularly important as underground distribution feeder outages occur during adverse weather conditions such as heat waves and storms that place significant stress on the electric grid. #ElectricGrid #UtilityWorkers #NetworkResiliency
