Offshore Grid Connection

Thanks to continuous innovative advancements, we’ve succeeded in reducing the topside volume of our platform by about 65% in relation to the power rating, which also diminishes the weight by 50%. This has a significant positive impact on its carbon footprint because less steal is needed to construct the platform.

HVDC

High-voltage direct current (HVDC) is ideal for bridging the distances between large-scale renewable power generating installations such as offshore wind farms and the load centers they serve. In a multi-terminal configuration, the collecting of renewable power can be combined with pan-continental integration of power transmission systems, such as for interconnecting multiple regional or national AC grids.

Electrolyzer

Synchronous Condenser

Parallel connected synchronous condensers are mainly used for providing short-circuit power and inertia. They also help to stabilize the network through voltage recovery during faults. This ability is becoming increasingly important as the rising share of renewable power generation and the fluctuating nature of its power feed-in can lead to a lack of short-circuit power and inertia.

When fossil-fuel power plants are in standby shutdown, synchronous condenser solutions use a conventional generator to provide the necessary inertia and short-circuit contribution by means of its rotating mass while also providing or absorbing reactive power.

E-STATCOM

SVC PLUS FS® - Frequency Stabilizer

The share of electric power produced from renewable energy sources is growing worldwide. However, the intermittent, fluctuating nature of power feed-in from renewables puts significant strain on the electricity grids. Due to the geographical locations where renewable energy is harnessed, the distances from generating installations to load centers are growing, causing voltage and frequency fluctuations to occur. SVC PLUS FS® is the frequency stabilizer extension of our SVC PLUS® STATCOM, offering energy storage by supercapacitors. In addition to reactive power compensation, it enables active power to be injected or stored to balance the frequency in the grid.

The share of electric power produced from renewable energy sources is growing worldwide. However, the intermittent, fluctuating nature of power feed-in from renewables puts significant strain on the electricity grids. Due to the geographical locations where renewable energy is harnessed, the distances from generating installations to load centers are growing, causing voltage and frequency fluctuations to occur. Voltage fluctuations can be compensated for by regulating the reactive power using our SVC PLUS® technology. Additional features are available with SVC PLUS® technology, e.g. Active Filtering of harmonics and Grid Forming functionality.

Net Zero Substation

Our Blue portfolio makes it possible to modernize and expand the existing power grids at the highest level of safety while at the same time enormously reducing their CO₂ footprint without having to compromise on performance and economic feasibility. The combination of vacuum switching technology and clean air insulation is the key to future-proof net zero substations.
