Weather intelligence and cutting-edge tech is boosting grid capacity by 30%
Power grid optimizer Heimdall Power paired up with weather intelligence tech company Meteomatics – and a 30% increase in power grids’ transmission capacity resulted.
Most power lines today are “dumb” – that is, operated without insight into their real-time conditions. That means the grid’s total capacity is untapped. Power grid optimizers provide grid operators with the data they need to predict the real-time actual capacity of specific power lines and determine new, safe limits for operating th...
