Over the past few years, tower technologies have undergone significant changes. Owing to factors such as increasing urbanisation, limited space availability and the need to quickly scale up transmission infrastructure, developers are looking at towers […]
The cables and conductors market in India has grown exponentially over the years on the back of sizeable investments in the power sector. The market is poised to grow significantly in the future as well, […]
Growing improvements in the power sector have given way to the emergence of new transformer technologies. These new-generation transformers have improved core materials, better safety levels (such as fire resistance), space optimisation, lower costs, reduced […]
The electricity sector is set to witness accelerated technological transformation of a multidimensional character, which will facilitate rapid capital expansion, aid in operational optimisation and enhance the resilience of the grid as a whole. The […]
The advances in transmission technologies have allowed project developers to implement new solutions in order to keep up with future network development. Advanced technology trends in conductors are focused on reducing right-of-way (RoW) requirements and […]
The transmission segment, which is pivotal to the efficient operation of the power sector, is at the crossroads of higher efficiency, owing to the ongoing implementation and commissioning of digital substations, along with other technological […]
Power transmission company Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation Limited (KPTCL), set up in 1999, is mainly responsible for the transmission of power in the renewables-rich state of Karnataka. Over the past few years, the transco has […]
On October 12, 2020, Mumbai suffered a massive power outage that disrupted electricity supply in many parts of the city and its suburbs. The outage was a rare occurrence in the country’s financial capital, which […]
The lack of right of way (RoW) is perhaps the most pressing, long-standing problem for transmission system developers. While developers have taken steps to overcome RoW challenges by deploying advanced design and technology options for […]
West Bengal’s sole state transmission company, West Bengal State Electricity Transmission Company Limited (WBSETCL) is one of the largest transcos in India. It is responsible for transmitting power throughout the state. In recent years, WBSETCL’s […]
India achieved a significant milestone in its renewable energy journey with the recent commissioning of 11 renewable energy management centres (REMCs). The REMCs allow centralised forecasting and monitoring of renewable energy generation which is crucial […]
Amidst the Covid-19 nationwide lockdown, the prime minister of India appealed to the citizens of India to switch off their lights and express solidarity by lighting earthen lamps or torches on April 5, 2020, at […]
Cables and conductors are vital components of transmission and distribution (T&D) networks. Over the past few years, the cables and conductors market has witnessed healthy growth backed by a rapid expansion of T&D lines to […]
The ceation of high voltage long distance corridors to deliver electricity to high-demand regions and the development of green energy corridors for integrating the increasing share of renewable energy into the grid has spurred demand […]
Cables and conductors are among the most important components of a power transmission network. In the current scenario of increasing power demand, it is imperative to keep these components in good condition through better operations […]
Cables and conductors form an integral part of an electrical network. The use of good quality cables that meet the specific needs and requirements of a particular electric network is essential to maintain a secure […]
Over the years, significant technological strides have been made on the transmission infrastructure front. Power transmission utilities are adopting newer technologies to address the issue of right-of-way (RoW) constraints, ensure cost-effective network expansion and reduce […]
India’s power sector is experiencing a paradigm shift, driven primarily by a strong demand growth, and the government’s target to achieve 40 per cent non-fossil fuel-based generation capacity as per its intended nationally determined contributions. […]
