2024 outgoing Study Committee Chairs
Out with the Old and in with the New
As we start to see a lot of new applications for transformers due to the worldwide energy transition process.
It starts with the massive expansion of photovoltaic and wind energy plants, thus today an additional installed energy capacity of around 2.500 GW worldwide has been reached. Therefore, additional new transformers have been installed in a range of 1 million pieces worldwide.
End of an Era and new beginnings at CIGRE
As we close a significant chapter at CIGRE, we want to take a moment to acknowledge the incredible leadership and dedication of Michel Augonnet, who has just concluded his presidency, and Marcio Szechtman, who has completed his tenure as the Technical Council Chair.
Evaluation of grid operational resilience stressed by energy transition and by climate change: new metrics (SIRI) and countermeasures
For the High Voltage (HV) electrical grid, concepts and applications related to resilience have become quite common, also at planning stage. According to the definition reported by CIGRE WG C4.47, power system resilience is the ability to limit the extent, severity and duration of system degradation following an extreme event and it is achieved through a set of key actionable measures to be taken before, during and after extreme events.
