Optimizing your aerial transmission network through high-performance cabling solutions

PublishTime：2022-03-25

●With electrical power consumption growing annually approximately 3.5% worldwide, utilities and Transmission SystemOperators (TSOs) are faced with increasing congestion management, overloading, bottlenecks, and even costly blackouts. Moreover, additional power generation (like wind-farms) are further straining available network links. It is therefore becoming essential to upgrade the existing network with optimized solutions and/or to expand it with newlines to improve the reliability of the grid while respecting the design criteria and assuring sustainable energy supply far into the future.
●Refurbishment and upgrade of existing linesSince the objective is to increase capacity and transmission network reliability at reasonable cost, transmission planners want to re-use existing towers and installations to save time, and avoid very long right-of-way authorizations. Therefore, to do more with the same structures means that you have to replace lines with new conductors that can deliver higher ampacity, operate safely at higher temperatures, without straining towers and pylons, or generating dangerous sag. Moreover, real-time monitoring systems, installed directly on the lines are a good solution to further improve the operating capacity and reliability of the network.
●New lines and interconnectionsTo achieve higher capacity with reduced capital investment, it is now feasible to use fewer towers and longer conductor spans. This means incorporating the latest generation of carbon core conductors which are lighter and offer higher mechanical strength. These new conductors can also be designed to operate at higher temperatures, thus allowing temporary or permanent increases in capacity, and strengthening the reliability of the network.
