Big Yellow Box: Long-Distance HVDC Transmission Will Support Next Wave of Offshore Wind Off North Sea Coast

Gregor Macdonald
April 25, 2023

Last May, four countries in Northern Europe declared their intention to install at least 65 gigawatts (GW) of offshore wind energy in the wind-rich North Sea by 2030, up from the current 20 GW. It’s another sign that the offshore wind industry is set for an unprecedented boom as the technology improves and countries rush to reduce their reliance on fossil fuels and speed the journey to net zero.

Smooth Power: GE Helps Recharge Eurotunnel So More Trains Can Travel Vital Link Between UK and the Continent

Gregor Macdonald
February 09, 2023

Despite Britain’s exit from the European Union two years ago, a unique piece of infrastructure forever links the country to the Continent: the Channel Tunnel. This hard connection beneath the English Channel has safely guided passenger and freight rail for nearly 30 years since its unveiling in 1994. Tourism and economic activity have expanded greatly over that time, and 25% of UK-EU trade is now dependent on “the Chunnel.”

Master Builders: The Lab Shaping The Future Of The Energy Grid

Dorothy Pomerantz
January 29, 2020
You can think of the electricity grid, as it has existed for more than 100 years, as a well-built Lego model, each piece fitting perfectly with the other. Electricity traveled in one direction from power plants through wires and transformers to homes and businesses, where every electron produced got consumed.

Along The Watchtower: Edge Intelligence Comes To Electric Power

John H Tibbetts
January 29, 2020

We may take it for granted, but the electrical grid is one of the most remarkable systems around, sending electricity through thousands of miles of power lines into millions of homes and charging up billions of devices. Traditionally, it’s also been a centralized system, where the hub of a power plant pushes out energy into the spokes toward every end user. Climate change means that has to change, though — and in ways you may not expect.

Power Up: New Substations Are Helping Close The Electricity Gap In India

Virginia Citrano
November 13, 2019
Located in the Indian state of West Bengal, Ramnagar is a small town just a few miles from quiet beaches and windswept dunes lining the Bay of Bengal. While those nearby coastal towns (some 100 miles southwest of Kolkata) attract beach-loving tourists, they’re nowhere near as popular as other Indian beach destinations, such as Goa. One of the reasons: The area doesn’t have reliable electricity.

Ducking The Duck Curve: This Tech Will Help California Ride Out Power Swings Caused By Renewables

August 22, 2019
The rapid growth of California’s solar industry has changed the Golden State’s grid from a camel into a duck — and no, we have not been sitting out too long in the midday sun. California’s baseload curve, or bare minimum electricity supply, used to look like the profile of a camel with two equally sized humps, because thermal plants came online twice a day to meet power demand peaks.

The Network Effect: The Internet Of Electricity Is Coming and This Little Device Is Making It Happen

Tomas Kellner
June 26, 2019

It’s small, aluminum and barely larger than a hardcover book. But just like the dial-up modem a few decades ago, the device is helping revolutionize electrical power in ways we haven’t seen before.
