The transition to clean energy, rising energy demand and the need for flexibility when integrating wind and solar power are expected to boost the hydropower sector. The digitalisation of hydropower plants is gaining traction to […]
New and emerging technologies such as internet of things (IoT), digital substations, blockchain and remote monitoring solutions are revamping the way utilities operate and maintain their assets. Power utilities are increasingly deploying sensors and intelligent […]
The transmission grid faces numerous challenges. Renewable energy integration is the biggest challenge. Based on the agenda of COP26, India needs to integrate over 500 GW of renewable energy by 2030. Thus, the transmission segment […]
Digitalisation of hydropower plants improves power plant performance by optimising asset management and reducing operations and maintenance (O&M) costs. Digital solutions access and analyse plant performance data to derive actionable insights for making the right […]
With the growing integration of renewable energy into the grid, hydropower is expected to play a major role in addressing the intermittency and balancing requirements. The International Hydropower Association (IHA) has recently recognised India as […]
Testing and measurement (T&M) solutions are crucial for maintaining operational efficiency and optimising the operations and maintenance of power plants. They also play a vital role in maintaining the life expectancy of power plant assets. […]
Metering communication technologies are crucial for any smart meter implementation project, as they form the basis of two-way information passage between a power utility and its consumers. These technologies provide a constant stream of granular […]
With benefits including reduced operations and maintenance (O&M) costs, improved data analysis and enhanced project management, digitalisation is a growing trend in the power industry. Hydropower plants are required to ramp up or down generation […]
Substations and switchgear are critical components of transmission and distribution (T&D) systems and work in close conjunction with each other. The reliability of a power system directly depends on the efficient functioning of its equipment, […]
The Indian power sector has been struggling with issues such as infrastructure inadequacy, and transmission and distribution inefficiencies. There are several technical challenges in terms of manual distribution processes and lack of real-time information that […]
India’s electrical equipment industry has been growing steadily over the past few years with the major growth drivers being the cables and switchgear markets. Switchgear is classified as low voltage (LV), those having ratings of […]
