  • Oil Analyses Condition Assessment of Transformers and Rotating Machinery
    Oil Analyses Condition assessment of transformers and rotating machinery • Detecting and preventing faults • Increasing availability • Optimizing maintenance Transformers Prevent failures A sudden breakdown of a power or industrial transformer usually means unforeseen costs for maintenance, new investments to be made, or unexpected production interruption. As many transformers in companies throughout Europe become older, the probability of such a breakdown increases. What you should know about transformer failures • The average transformer age at failure is 18 years. • The largest financial losses are due to failures of industrial and generator step-up transformers (study by the Hartford Insurance Company). • Insulation failure is the leading cause (responsible for one fourth of all failures). • The cost of insulation failures alone accounts for more than half of all failure costs. • Large power transformers have delivery times between 18 and 24 months. Check your transformer’s health The insulating oil in a transformer can tell you a lot about the actual state of your transformer and its remaining lifetime. Based on this information, you can anticipate potential failures and put in place a precisely targeted maintenance or replacement plan. What your transformer oil can tell you An in-depth analysis of your transformer’s oil gives you a Electrabel power plant good insight into the condition of your transformer and its Herdersbrug, Bruges (B) electrical insulation. ‘Thanks to the early detection of a hotspot, irreversible damage to the transformer — and in the • Internal faults: you can detect the presence of electrical worst case an explosion — was avoided.’ or thermal faults and determine its exact type (partial discharges, hot spots, arcing, et cetera).

  • UET and ENGIE Commission First UET Reflex Module
    UET and ENGIE commission first UET Reflex Module UET and ENGIE announce today they have successfully achieved the commissioning of the first UET Reflex™ Module at the Batteries lab of ENGIE Research Centre Laborelec, located near Brussels. The Reflex™ Module is a small 7.5 kW – 30 kWh redox flow battery of the 4th generation, storing electricity in a vanadium mixed acid electrolyte, and is a modular evolution of the well proved UET redox flow technology, especially suited for installation inside buildings. The battery will be thoroughly tested for performance and operability, prior to its installation in a commercial environment. “ENGIE strongly believes that redox flow batteries will become an interesting alternative to Lithium ion and lead acid based battery technologies for certain stationary energy applications, offering ancillary services to the grid for example, and will contribute to the transition to a zero carbon economy.”, says Luc Goossens CTO from ENGIE RESEARCH “The installation and testing of this UET Reflex module will enable ENGIE to benchmark Vanadium redox flow batteries against other technologies, fully understand their behaviour, optimise the operational procedures. The long term follow-up of the performance will be realized through ENGIE Laborelec’s proprietary monitoring platform Monica.” “UET has developed a compelling value proposition with the UET Reflex™ Module, a battery that is intrinsically safe, recyclable and scalable. Applications ranging from a few kilowatts to hundreds of megawatts make this battery eminently suited to play a very significant role in the energy transition in Europe” says Dr Ir Roelof Platenkamp, Board member of UET with focus on European developments.

  • Are Newsletter July 2013
    ARE NEWSLETTER JULY 2013 A KIND THANK YOU TO OUR GRACIOUS SPONSORS. www.studer-innotec.com www.sma.de www.trojanbattery.com Editorial Ernesto Macias ARE President RECHARGING ARE Dear friends of Rural Electrification, As President of the Alliance for Rural Electrification, I am delighted to sign my first Editorial of the Newsletter. To enhance business development, this issue is devoted to energy storage, a very hot topic not just in ARE’s agenda, but also in the debate on how to achieve universal access to clean, affordable and reliable energy. The Alliance truly believes that energy storage is an important element to ease the path towards deeper penetration of renewable energy technologies by ensuring reliability, efficiency and price- competitiveness of electricity services. Therefore, we have launched a six-month campaign to inform decision makers in developing countries and emerging markets on the added value of using storage technologies in off-grid renewable energy solutions and as grid backup for rural electrification. As kick-off of this initiative, we celebrated a very successful workshop at Intersolar Europe to present the position paper Using batteries to ensure clean, reliable and affordable universal electricity access. The document includes useful recommendations, applications of the different types of battery technologies, as well as successful case studies from India, Bangladesh, Jordan, Peru and Mozambique. Also, some of our members gave insightful presentations on energy storage based on their experience with rural electrification. As you will learn from this Newsletter, upcoming activities in the framework of the Energy Storage Campaign will include a webinar co-organised with the UN Foundation and the participation in several high level events, among others.

  • IEA Wind TCP 2017 Annual Report Presents Highlights and Trends from Each Member Country and Sponsor Member, As Well As Global Statistics
    IEA Wind Technology Collaboration Programme 2017 Annual Report A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR Wind energy continued its strong forward momentum during the past term, with many countries setting records in cost reduction, deployment, and grid integration. In 2017, new records were set for hourly, daily, and annual wind–generated electricity, as well as share of energy from wind. For example, Portugal covered 110% of national consumption with wind-generated electricity during three hours while China’s wind energy production increased 26% to 305.7 TWh. In Denmark, wind achieved a 43% share of the energy mix—the largest share of any IEA Wind TCP member countries. From 2010-2017, land-based wind energy auction prices dropped an average of 25%, and levelized cost of energy (LCOE) fell by 21%. In fact, the average, globally-weighted LCOE for land-based wind was 60 USD/ MWh in 2017, second only to hydropower among renewable generation sources. As a result, new countries are adopting wind energy. Offshore wind energy costs have also significantly decreased during the last few years. In Germany and the Netherlands, offshore bids were awarded at a zero premium, while a Contract for Differences auction round in the United Kingdom included two offshore wind farms with record strike prices as low as 76 USD/MWh. On top of the previous achievements, repowering and life extension of wind farms are creating new opportunities in mature markets. However, other challenges still need to be addressed. Wind energy continues to suffer from long permitting procedures, which may hinder deployment in many countries. The rate of wind energy deployment is also uncertain after 2020 due to lack of policies; for example, only eight out of the 28 EU member states have wind power policies in place beyond 2020.

In addition to the standard preventive maintenance and repair activity, PV panels need to be regularly cleaned, especially in arid regions where PV solar plants can lose 1% efficiency per day due to dust and other contaminants. Greenhouse gas emissions are directly linked to rising global temperatures, rising sea levels, and melting polar regions. Over two-thirds of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions are a product of burning fossil fuels primarily for power generation.
