Material for transformers is just one area…

In recent years, the problem of reactive power compensation has become more and more important in the power field worldwide. Reactive power compensation aims to improve electrical efficiency by reducing losses and improving power factor. In Peru, the application of 220v reactive power compensation has attracted much attention.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) issued a final rule yesterday setting efficiency standards and compliance timelines for distribution transformers. We appreciate that DOE improved its burdensome proposed rule based on constructive engagement with NEMA and our coalition of stakeholders. However, there is more work ahead to ensure these changes do not cause additional transformer supply chain challenges and lengthen lead times for these necessary grid components.

Since the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, one of the challenges hydroelectric companies, organizations, and power marketing administrations like WAPA have faced include issues surrounding supply chain management. The delayed delivery of critical power system components has risen from mere months to years. This includes the availability of heavy voltage lines and large transformers, of which the latter can take up to 4 ½ years to be delivered and, in some cases, have risen in cost by 200%. Read below how WAPA formed a team to mitigate these ongoing challenges – and found results: #hydro #electric #hydroelectric #WAPA #cleanenergy #supplychain

Our industry agrees. We need transformers. We have load growth with server farms, hydroponics and new homes, we are promoting electrification of everything, we are building distributed energy resources (DER) everywhere in anticipation of FERC 2222, and we are strategically undergrounding thousands of circuit miles of overhead. We need new transformers. Everyone agrees: The American Public Power Association, Edison Electric Institute, National Association of Home Builders, National Electrical Manufacturers Association, known as NEMA, and the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association are ALL asking the Administration to ease off their ambitious carbon goals as they relate to electric distribution transformers. The current supply chain is choked. Development of new domestic manufacturing plants is limited by access to the newly required rare earth elements https://lnkd.in/gbCyUxik, and manufacturers do not want to invest in technologies driven by changing and “uncertain” government policies. Let’s see if Washington hears our collective voice. Thanks. Mike #pdi2 #transformers

Price impacts of a potential bidding zone split in Germany Free Webinar, Tuesday, July 23rd 2024, from 4.00 p.m. until 4.30 p.m. (UTC+2)   By 2026, the ACER Bidding Zone Review could turn out to bring Germany a decision to fundamentally reform its power market design.   At enervis, we have assessed how the power prices following a bidding zone split into a Northern and a Southern zone could look like. The reform would bring far-reaching consequences for a wide range of market players. Industry and offtakers in the South are facing a risk of a substantial increase in base prices in the first years of a decoupling, depending largely on the progress of the grid expansion. RES asset owners in the North are affected even stronger by falling capture prices and increasing low price hours. Long-term PPA contracts closed under the current market design face the risk of being reopened and renegotiated, in particularly if they fulfil demand in one zone with supply from the other.   In our free webinar on July 23rd, we give insights into our new study and would like to discuss key results and implications with you.   Further information and registration on our website: https://lnkd.in/dUTZuKkC Don't hesitate to get in contact with our experts directly: Julius Buschle and Tim Steinert.   #biddingzonesplit #wind #energy #powermarket #ppa #powerprices #captureprices #capturerates #baseprice #renewableenergy

U.S. power infrastructure is currently facing a significant challenge due to a shortage of transformers. The root cause of the problem is partly coordination issues among regional transmission organizations and independent system operators. To tackle this problem, enhanced planning and coordination across local, regional, and inter-regional transmission projects are required, along with addressing regulatory gaps. Solving the transformer shortage is essential to ensure a reliable power supply across the United States.
