HVDC, Reconductoring and Smart Balls Supercharge Grids
Transmission innovations and application for a decarbonize world with a masala flavor
Under the auspices of the India Smart Grid Forum, the think tank founded as an umbrella organization over India’s 28 state utilities to provide thought leadership, share leading practices, and bring international insights to India, I’m delivering bi-weekly webinars framed by the Short List of Climate Actions That Will Work. With the glories of online recordings and AI transcription tools, it’s relatively easy to share both the transcript, and also the slides that I used, so I’m making a habit of it.
Most recently, I delivered a talk and held a Q&A session covering my thoughts on a very aggressive grid expansion and optimization for India, focusing on technologies like HVDC, smart dynamic line rating solutions like Heimdahl’s magic ball, and modern composite conductors. For those who prefer talk-talk to read-read, here’s the recorded video of the presentation and discussion.
