E.ON study: Smart equip­ment, such as volt­age reg­u­la­tion dis­tri­b­u­tion trans­form­ers, can ensure that grids are able to cope with peo­ple charg­ing their elec­tric cars.

We look at two exam­ples of how ECOTAP® VPD® helps Ital­ian grid oper­a­tor DEVAL to main­taina con­stant volt­age in the Aos­ta Val­ley.

At TRANSFORM in Hong Kong, Rein­hausen pre­sent­ed tech­nolo­gies for the chal­lenges of tomor­row.

Imag­ine a world where you could over­load a fleet of trans­form­ers dynam­i­cal­ly for net­work con­trol pur­pos­es. Sounds like the stuff of fan­ta­sy? Well, PSI Soft­ware AG and Rein­hausen are already work­ing on it.

Car­ry­ing out par­tial dis­charge tests in wind tur­bines? It’s not pos­si­ble! Or is it?

Rein­hausen has an exten­sive port­fo­lio of trans­former ser­vice work to offer the US mar­ket. Gen­er­al Man­ag­er Bern­hard Kurth explains in an inter­view how this is accom­plished.

Con­ven­tion­al dehy­drat­ing breathers require reg­u­lar main­te­nance. In order to elim­i­nate this extra work, ener­gy sup­pli­er VSE Verteil­netz GmbH uses the main­te­­nance-free solu­tion from MESSKO in all of its trans­form­ers — sav­ing both time and mon­ey.

The fourth largest hydro­elec­tric facil­i­ty in Chi­na is tak­ing shape on the low­er course of the Jin­sha riv­er. The elec­tric­i­ty that is pro­duced is car­ried to con­sumers via a high-volt­age direct-cur­rent line. Rein­hausen sup­plied 100 com­pos­ite hol­low insu­la­tors for this, each up to eleven meters in length.
