Medium voltage (MV) switchgear demand is being driven by grid modernization, rapid electrification, data center expansion, and the expansion of distributed energy resources. The increasing deployment of renewables, EV charging infrastructure, and industrial electrification is creating a need for flexible and reliable MV systems, while growth in mic...

In order to achieve the target of 20 per cent energy savings by 2020, the EU needs to augment its efforts on energy efficiency measures especially in the residential sector, which contributes to 27 per cent of total EU energy consumption. MicroCHP is the next generation solution with high efficiency, and is a replacement option for millions of boi...

The South African heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) market is in the growth development phase. The market is immature when compared with those of its European and North American counterparts, however, it continues to grow at a steady rate. Some of the key factors contributing to the market growth are the increasing concerns about the ...

An MG is an energy system consisting of a group of interconnected loads, distributed energy resources, consumers, and optional storage that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid. A VPP is a virtual network that is dependent on software systems to connect remotely and automate dispatch of power generation. The fine line that ...

Specific energy density, safety and cost. These are three main issues that post lithium ion to address. Post lithium ion batteries theoretically have at least double specific density compared to lithium ion battery. In term of safety, the post lithium ion battery theoretically should have better safety due to less reactivity of elements.

Europe continues to be the leading market for electric vehicles. BEVs are considered ‘clean’ innovations where tech gadgets render high-tech attributes when compared to ICEs. Frost & Sullivan assessed new customer attitudes and preferences for alternative vehicles and powertrains by vehicle segment and key demographics. Frost & Sullivan carried out...

The Brazilian power market is going through a transformation driven by current and upcoming changes in regulation as well as the spread of digital technologies and flexible and distributed assets. Global “3D” trends (decarbonization, decentralization, and digitalization) are shaping the power generation matrix to 2030 and disrupting businesses and ...

The South African electricity crisis is characterised by a significant unbalance between power demand and supply. This is partly the result of underinvestment in transmission and distribution infrastructure. This development has translated into total energy losses estimated at 8.0% in 2008. As a result, power and distribution transformers are seen ...

The lithium-ion battery market is considered a high growth market. Because demand for energy storage is increasing, the need for lithium-ion batteries is also increasing. The segments that will exhibit high growth rates for these batteries include automotive, grid and renewable energy storage, consumer, and industrial. With greater emphasis on gree...
