Creating Sustainability

Effi­cien­cy, resource con­ser­va­tion and longevi­ty have always been major themes in our cor­po­rate cul­ture, and we will doc­u­ment this in our first sus­tain­abil­i­ty report in 2023. We are also aligned with the UN’s guid­ing prin­ci­ples. So it’s time to take a look at how we pro­mote sus­tain­abil­i­ty not only with our prod­ucts, but also for our cus­tomers.

Reactive Power without coal

An agile tester

The Aus­tralian grid oper­a­tor Aus­grid need­ed a mobile test­ing sys­tem that could also get around tight cor­ners. HIGHVOLT there­fore packed the entire tech­nol­o­gy onto a com­pact truck — it was a mat­ter of mil­lime­ters.

Power for Steel

Sus­tain­abil­i­ty goes hand in hand with longevi­ty. That’s why the thyssenk­rupp steel­works in Duis­burg was vis­it­ed by MR’s FLEETSCAN 2D spe­cial­ists, who explained the process of the ser­vice — which puts trans­form­ers through their paces — in a train­ing ses­sion.

USA: Everything under control

Reinhausen’s dom­i­nance in the high volt­age and medi­um volt­age sub­sta­tion on-load tap-chang­er mar­ket is now migrat­ing down­stream to the indi­vid­ual con­nect­ed cus­tomer lev­el. This break­through inno­va­tion is allow­ing util­i­ties to solve a whole suite of cus­tomer prob­lems more effi­cient­ly and effec­tive­ly. The fol­low­ing are three exam­ples of US-util­i­ties deploy­ing this flex­i­ble solu­tion.

Energy boom on the sea

The North Sea is set to become Europe’s green pow­er plant. But how will the huge amounts of wind pow­er reach the peo­ple? Tor­ben Glar Nielsen, for­mer CTO of Energinet, and Wil­fried Breuer, Man­ag­ing Direc­tor of MR, have an idea: arti­fi­cial ener­gy islands!

The interconnection of the seas

What is the best way to col­lect the wind pow­er in the North and Baltic Seas and dis­trib­ute it to the neigh­bor­ing states? The vision: with a net­work of arti­fi­cial islands.

“We are pursuing the concept of a meshed direct current grid at sea and on land.“

Tim Mey­er­jür­gens, Chief Oper­at­ing Offi­cer at Ten­neT, on the trans­mis­sion sys­tem operator’s plans for the North Sea.

From China to the world

Whether it’s the rapid­ly grow­ing demand for elec­tric­i­ty, the ener­gy tran­si­tion or digitalization—the com­plex­i­ty of the require­ments placed on trans­former man­u­fac­tur­ers is increas­ing. Nan­tong Hyosung Co. Ltd. from Chi­na has there­fore entered into a strate­gic part­ner­ship with MR and can now offer lean sys­tem solu­tions to a glob­al clien­tele.

Substation upgrade

Region­al low-volt­age and medi­um-volt­age grid oper­a­tors are clear­ly feel­ing the effects of the ener­gy tran­si­tion. The ener­gy sup­pli­er EWF is there­fore focus­ing on a detailed sta­tus analy­sis and new sen­sor tech­nol­o­gy for old­er equip­ment that should con­tin­ue to func­tion reli­ably.
