As the smart grid continues to develop, metering is a key building block in the process, enabling the accurate measurement of consumption and allowing utility companies to move toward real-time pricing and policies to try and reduce peak demand. The market is being driven by increased regulations and, in some markets, a desire to minimise non-techn...

A gas insulated switchgear (GIS), typically housed in a high voltage substation, is a critical component in the substations of the transmission network of utilities or in energy-intensive industrial units. In general, GIS structures are contained in a metal-sealed environment with sulfur hexafluoride gas (SF6) as the insulating medium. A GIS’s basi...

Key Issues Addressed

Falling battery prices, stringent emission regulations, rapid increase in public charging stations and innovation in eMobility business models are all drivers for growth in the electrification of transport over the next decade. Although the overall increase in electricity consumption is lower than many people might expect, the proliferation of EVs ...

Pressure to reduce costs, improve revenues, and become more competitive has prompted investor-owned utilities to utilize outsourcing transmission and distribution (T&D) services. Recent winter storms, which hit the states between 2012 and 2013, prompted utilities to invest rugged T&D infrastructure. Furthermore, the addition of renewable power on t...
