Explore our latest insights on Grids of the Future

Improve grid reliability through digital technology

According to our in-depth interviews with mid-size distribution utilities located around the world their biggest concern is power reliability, so they have to improve SAIDI and SAIFI.

Develop and evaluate a utility substation's cybersecurity

Hacking continues to evolve. While still new to the age of connectivity, the energy industry is increasingly aware of cybersecurity threats and the need for standardised, effective solutions.

Fighting power outages with FLISR

Even short power outages can cause costly chaos. By reducing outages' frequency and duration, electricity companies can prevent productivity and financial losses.

Minimise environmental footprint

Become SF6-free

Moving away from SF6 benefits the industry, society and environment. Our SF6-free technology is an ingenious combination of air for insulation and vacuum technology for switching, with innovative shunt vacuum interruption.

Benefit from sustainable products and circular economy

Material circular economy assessments have now been introduced in several countries and the EU. Environmentally conscious design covers material efficiency, but also energy savings, energy efficiency and environmental footprint.

Reduce energy losses

As energy losses depend on the network characteristics and the mode of operation, electrical distribution systems should be properly designed, operated, and maintained to optimize their occurrence.

Mitigate power disruption

Improve reliability

Distribution utilities want to reduce the duration of the outages seen by their customers. Enhance the network availability improving the key KPIs: SAIFI, SAIDI and MAIFI.

Withstand stressful forces

Learn how EcoStruxure for Power and Grid helps ensure your grid is resilient to harsh weather conditions.

Limit cyber threats

With the broadening link between IT and OT platforms, cyberthreats are not limited to data security risks. The key is to look beyond traditional solutions that address only some of the challenges.

Ensure affordable energy

Increase operational efficiency

Smart grid operations and utility field operations get higher operational efficiency with business process automation and optimization (e.g., work requests, work orders) that integrate grid digital twins.

Optimize asset management

EcoStruxure Grid Asset Advisor for Grid helps monitor and maximize asset value along the entire lifecycle as well as optimize the operational business processes.

Converge grid edge planning and operations

Leverage Smart Meters’ and IoT sensors’ data to understand characteristics, behavior, and performance of LV networks. Improve planning and operations accordingly.

Maximize grid adaptability

Enable greater DER adoption

Optimize renewable integration with an agile and cost-effective scenario for grid areas under constraints to maximize flexibility as an alternatives to grid reinforcement. Get global monitoring, control and forecasting abilities of the different DG spread throughout the grid.

Offer new services

Proper flexibility management and cooperation between the actors are needed to deliver high value on both sides of the meter. Allow monitoring and dispatch of a massive quantity of DER.
