As part of the energy sector’s evolution towards decarbonisation, there has been an increased focus on integrating new energy resources, including renewable generation and storage, into existing power grids. Whereas traditional firm grid connections can be long and expensive processes, non-firm connection, allowing assets to connect without guaranteeing full-time access but still participate in electricity markets, often offers a more flexible and cost-effective alternative.Read More

As all of us collectively shape the future of the electric grid, we also recognize the challenges operators face in maintaining efficiency, accuracy, and situational awareness under pressure.Read More

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.Read More
