Sterlite Power acquires Nangalbibra - BongaigaonISTS Project from PFC

New Delhi, 28 December 2021: Sterlite Power Transmission Limited (“Sterlite Power” or the “Company”), a main personal area strength transmission infrastructure developer and options provider, introduced the acquisition of Nangalbibra ─ Bongaigaon Transmission Limited, a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) from PFC Consulting Limited. Through this SPV, the Company will execute the inter-state transmission gadget (ISTS) challenge (the “Project”) which it received via tariff-based aggressive bidding (TBCB) in October 2021.

Hitachi’s Innovative Power Transmission Technology Ensures Clean Energy for NY Homes

Making long-distance energy transfer a reality

Decarbonization goals require the government to work closely with the private sector to develop effective solutions for clean energy transmission. These public-private partnerships, such as the ambitious project in New York leveraging Hitachi’s high-voltage direct current (HVDC) technology, is essential if objectives at the state and local levels are to be achieved.

However, though emerging tools and technologies aim to reduce carbon emissions, the problem of electricity transmission has been a major obstacle.  The project in New York is setting the bar for public-private partnerships in the energy sector with Hitachi’s unique technology and is making long-distance energy transfer a reality.

Renewable energy transmission to power New York

The state of New York’s Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act has set a target to be powered by 70% renewable energy by 2030^ . Historically, the state has been reliant on traditional and dispatchable energy sources like gas and coal. But most renewable energy sources must be held in reserve until needed. Accessing renewable energy on demand requires a means of storing power for later use.

Initially, the challenge was to find a suitable renewable power reservoir that was well-positioned for the transfer of renewable energy to and from the state. As Quebec relies mostly on hydropower generation, its infrastructure and capacity provided renewable energy storage capabilities to its neighbor. Next, an environmentally responsible means of bringing clean hydropower from Quebec to New York City was facilitated by Hitachi’s HVDC technology.

As the technology powers the Champlain Hudson Power Express (CHPE) link between Quebec and New York City, it deploys long distances underground and underwater, to bypass legacy transmission bottlenecks and meet the growing demand for clean power. Using Hitachi’s HVDC Light technology, CHPE will transfer up to 1,250 megawatts of electricity, enough to power 1 million New York homes.

Hitachi’s HVDC for clean energy transmission

As a New York City mandate requiring the installation of electric appliances comes into force, demand for electricity in the city will grow. With HVDC Light’s ability to promote resource diversity to overall resource reliability, the CHPE system will be better equipped to meet the increase in electricity consumption.

HVDC Light further supports the state’s climate goals by maintaining a low environmental impact, and its converter stations likewise have a small carbon footprint. The CHPE project is expected to create 1,400 jobs from the construction phase, bringing $50 billion in economic benefits to New York state. The impact of the project is projected to be equal to removing 44% of passenger vehicles from the city. ^^

Hitachi’s work on the CHPE system reflects the company’s commitment to deploying technology to achieve social good by making it feasible to achieve critical sustainability goals.

A lot of cruise ctrl has been on hold for me because I keep running away from the technical and world building aspects but I bit the bullet and have been figuring a lot of shit out so there's that. Currently suffering my way through deciding how hoverbikes will work in a way that's realistic enough for my standards but I'm locked tf in

Hello, tumblr

This is my first post to tumblr and will learn about platform from this day. This account will be used to post interesting posts about electrical and it's universe which is very large and includes from tiny transistor to massive power transmission lines. I hope that i will learn from comments as well. That's it from my side.
