First Supercritical CO2 Circuit Breaker Debuts

Cars That Think

Such equipment is scattered widely throughout power grids as a way to stop the flow of electrical current in an emergency. Hundreds of thousands of circuit breakers dot power grids globally, and nearly all of the high voltage ones are insulated with SF 6. They group is also building a 245-kV version.

Building Resilience with Batteries: Why CPOs Should Integrate On-Site Battery Storage

Driivz

When CPOs consider how to build energy resilience into their network, battery storage is becoming a top line item. As concerns with grid challenges continue, a battery energy storage system (BESS) can provide the needed resiliency CPOs look to establish at their sites to guard against rising energy costs, grid strain, and more.
