Few people deeply understand the difference between thermal limitations and voltage constraints in power distribution. Truly understanding which of these limiting factors prevent maksimum capacity utilisation in your grid can unlock a lot of unused potential in your existing infrastructure. This project highlights the fact that voltage regulation can increase your capacity at the end customer as much as 3X, while cutting costs in the order of 80-90% as compared to traditional grid upgrades. This is a sustainable solution when there truly isn’t enough people, material or time to upgrade the grid in order to keep up with the electrification that’s necessary in order to reach our climate goals.
