Seems that the research undertaken by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory may have some value for future grid resilience as it includes length / frequency of 'wind droughts' https://lnkd.in/e6PY5zSc AEP perhaps does not get the credit it deserves for addressing 'lack of capacity issues in existing RoW' starting out some 10 years ago. Lower Rio Grande - 240 route miles of 345 kV reconductored fully energised, saving some 300,000 MW/h of electricity losses annually and ~ some 30,000 cars off the road from a decarbonisation perspective.

New Federal Energy Regulatory Commission rule announcement on transmission and cost allocation addresses "how transmission providers must conduct long-term planning for regional transmission facilities and determine how to pay for them, so needed transmission is built." This rule should help the country to build the power transmission capacity that the energy transition needs. #PowerTransmission #FERC #EnergyTransition #Energy https://lnkd.in/dp78h_mb

The National Electrical Code has made crucial clarifications regarding the safe placement of overcurrent protection devices (OCPDs) in supply-side connections from 2020 to 2023. Ryan Mayfield covers this code evolution in our latest episode of Code Corner.

BPA's Transmission Operator Services Program provides cost savings to utilities while BPA benefits from greater system visibility and operational control over the transmission grid. https://lnkd.in/gdv8PVgD

Grid Station Grid is a network which interconnects the Generation, Transmission and Distribution unit. It supplies the Electrical power from the generating unit to distributing unit. A power grid consists of generating stations, transmission system and distribution system.

If you missed our webinar on Cold Shrink v Heat Shrink you can access it on demand on our webinar hub. This webinar explores the elements that influence electrical network reliability, the role cable accessories play and what causes issues with a connection.

📢 Introducing NERC PRC-028-1: A Game-Changer for Inverter-Based Resources! 📌 Deep Dive into Requirement R1 of NERC PRC-028-1 🌐 Objective: Enhance the reliability of our energy systems by capturing crucial SER (Sequence of Events Recording) data from circuit breakers and IBR units. Key Highlights: Data Capture: At least one IBR unit connected to the last 10% of each collector feeder length should record data points 1.2.1 through 1.2.6. Data Points Include: Fault codes, alarms, operating mode changes, voltage & frequency ride-throughs, and control system metrics. Significance: This data provides a comprehensive timeline of the IBR facility's response during disturbances. Analysis: Evaluating SERs helps pinpoint initiating events and track disturbance spread. Why the Last 10%? This segment, closest to the main transmission connection, is pivotal. It's often the most challenging spot for IBRs during BES disturbances. Understanding and implementing Requirement R1 is a step forward in ensuring a resilient energy infrastructure. Stay informed and let's champion a robust energy future! ⚡️ #NERC #PRC0281 #EnergyStandards #PowerSystems https://lnkd.in/gpEUR629
