I am not an electrical engineer for sure but I know energy is a key to the transit industry especially with the increase in EV's. My colleagues have put together a brief webinar to help understand what a microgrid is and how it might help transit and public agencies. Registration slots are still available for our upcoming webinar "Unleashing the Power of Microgrids: Resilience, Efficiency, and Smart Operations." Explore the world of microgrids: local energy grids with control capability that can disconnect from the traditional grid to operate autonomously and help mitigate disturbances, thus strengthening grid resilience.

Shifting of Electricity networks to DC will reduce production cost of electrical and electronic equipment, reduction of transmission loss, fast recharging to EVs, electrification of Road and Rail Network with reduced infrastructure. Use of DC motors instead of AC will give better efficiency. In Solar +H2 green energy sources, removal of DC to AC invetor, AC to DC invertor to simple DC to DC converters facilitates to use of lower components with better efficiency and result.

Very true. Power Electronics, a field of Electrical Engineering, is a core requirement for achieving sustainable energy model. 

The contracted background is still growing, with more applications offsetting a falling acceptance rate. Over 404GW of generation projects are currently seeking to connect to the electricity transmission system, yet NGET data shows that up to 70% of those projects may never be built. There is 113GW currently in the distribution queue. ⚡️https://bit.ly/3uzWkNg #DNO #gridcompliance #developers #powersystem #electricity #gridconnection #electricitybill #netzero

How can our world benefit from DC technology? The NExT Factory is a best practice example for the use of DC technology, as it works exclusively with direct current from power generation to consumption. Thanks to its own PV roof system the NExT Factory is using to 100% green electricity and is therefore CO2-neutral. Moreover conversion and transmission losses are significantly reduced, which makes a direct current grid up to 15% more efficient than conventional solutions.   Yesterday we were glad to introduce the NExT Factory and its energy concept and share our expertise with our guests from OVE Österreichischer Verband für Elektrotechnik and representatives of research, science and business organizations. The Austrian Association for Electrical Engineering (OVE) supports Austrian companies in decarbonizing the energy supply. #schaltbau #DCPowerunderControl #NExTFactory #DCgrid #CO2neutral

The Power Router development by our partner, DG Matrix, is an impressive technological achievement that I felt should be shared with all my contacts. Kudos to DG Matrix. #engineering #consultants #datacenters #BESS #Microgrid #Renewable #DGmatrix

Since 2013, the majority of U.S. electric grid improvements have been upgrades and expansions to the existing transmission system. New lines continue to make an increasingly smaller % of grid improvements. We are tracking over 9,000 upcoming projects, 2/3's of which are upgrades and expansions. #electricgrid #renewableenergy #electrictransmission

🏢 A milestone in the All Electric Society: Building 60 with its own DC grid. A new building has been constructed at our headquarters in Blomberg, which focuses on #energyefficiency and networking. In addition to a thermal network, the building also has a 650 V DC grid. This DC grid is fed from the public AC power grid and a #photovoltaic system and connects generators, storage systems and consumers with each other. This innovative use of various technological solutions increases energy efficiency throughout the building. Direct current is a key technology of the All Electric Society and enables efficient energy transmission and use.
