Join us at the CIGRE 2024 conference for a presentation on the InterOPERA project's latest findings on functional frameworks for interoperable multi-vendor HVDC grids. Learn about control and protection requirements essential for integrating offshore wind power into the grid.
On May 28, 2024, the Horizon Europe project "Demonstration of Sustainable Hydropower Refurbishment" was launched in Brussels. Running for four years, ReHydro involves 22 partners from seven countries. The project aims to enhance hydropower's role in the electrical grid by upgrading plants to be more sustainable and flexible.
Each year at the start of summer, our team gathers for a day of festivities at our Mid-year seminar. Learning, laughter, camaraderie and a celebration of our accomplishments, it’s a day where colleagues can get to know each other better in a relaxed atmosphere, and where our directors can share their vision of what’s coming up in the months to come. This year was particularly special as we celebrated ten years of working together!
The InterOPERA project's Deliverable D2.1 sets out guidelines for the definition of functional requirements in HVDC grid systems in a multi-terminal multi-vendor context.
SuperGrid Institute and GE Vernova signed a collaboration agreement for the development of an HVDC circuit breaker to meet market needs.
Our CTO Bruno Luscan was recently invited to participate in a workshop to discuss the needs and deployment of carbon neutral power systems.
