To meet the growing demand from customers, Dynamic Ratings is expanding into a new North American Head Office.
As the demand for AI and other digital services continues to grow, data centers are creating an increasing burden on the electrical grid, and the country may not have the capacity to meet the demand. The digital revolution is now overwhelming utilities and regional power grid operators tasked with managing electricity demand, proving that utilities need to adapt, and showing us why asset management matters even more as we move into the future...
Switchgear is a complex apparatus composed of various moving and fixed parts and contacts, including conductor, circuit breaker, switches, fuses, and relays, serving as a critical component of the power protection system responsible for protecting other components on the electrical grid from damaging fault currents...
Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular worldwide, and while they offer numerous environmental and economic benefits, their widespread adoption poses several challenges to the electrical grid, primarily through increased electricity demand, peak load challenges, localized strain on distribution networks, and the need for significant infrastructure upgrades.
Partial discharge (PD) can pose a significant threat to high voltage electrical equipment and they are also typically the first indicator that an electrical asset is degrading. If left undetected or if reparative actions are not taken, partial discharges can lead to costly electrical failures. In the post we will examine a case study on the benefits of PD Monitoring.
By partnering with The National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (or NRECA), Dynamic Ratings is better able to showcase our own values, as partnership within this co-op community helps us both expand our own knowledge base and share our expertise to help foster continuous community improvement.
Maintaining uptime in the renewable energy industry is essential for ensuring a reliable, sustainable, and resilient energy supply, supporting economic growth and addressing environmental challenges. However, renewables face a range of policy uncertainties and implementation challenges, particularly those relating to downtime mitigation and grid integration.
High voltage circuit breakers are critical to the safety and effective operation of the electrical system. A circuit breaker must react quickly when a fault occurs to isolate fault currents from the rest of the system. While much attention is given to the monitoring of transformer conditions, circuit breakers are by far the largest contributor to the occurrence of substation events.
