Additive Manufacturing – Understanding the implications and opportunities of novel manufacturing techniques on the Electrical Power Sector
Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as Additive Layer Manufacturing (ALM) is the industrial name for 3D printing technology. This is a computer-controlled manufacturing process, which creates 3D objects by subsequent deposition of layers. AM has developed rapidly over the past decade, but there is a lack of relevant work in the field of electrical power engineering, as much of the published work focuses on mechanical, thermal and chemical properties.
Regulation and market design to foster decarbonation through industry electrification
Power systems are leading the race to address climate change issues by converting non-electric carbon intensive energy usages to low-carbon electricity. For example, European energy roadmaps target a rate of electrification of energy usage reaching 60% in 2050 against 23% in 2020.
Future proofing transformer tanks: why passive protection against internal arc should be studied?
Low-impedance arc faults within insulating fluid-filled power transformers and reactors pose a critical threat, marked by a sudden surge in pressure, to the main tank and associated components like bushings and tap-changers. Such faults can lead to the rupture of these integral elements, resulting in catastrophic outcomes such as fires, oil spills, part ejections, substantial downtime, and potential safety hazards for both utility personnel and the public.
