GENERATIONOptimize Traditional & RenewableChallenge

Globally by 2025, it is estimated that utilities will need to connect 2200 GW of new generation to electric grids. This is required to support the growing global population, specifically in emerging markets, coupled with global mandates and legislation required to reduce CO2 emissions from power generation sources.

Solution

GE provides a versatile and robust range of solutions for connecting and evacuating power from generation sources onto the grid, ensuring utilities have the tools needed to support the increase in demand quickly, safely and efficiently. Ensuring a continuous supply of power, GE offers Electrical Balance of Plant (EBoP), smart controls and sensors and communication networking solutions for distributed, renewable, and thermal power plants and microgrid applications.

TRANSMISSIONProtecting & Utilizing Critical AssetsChallenge

Power systems are interconnected, highly complex networks that are susceptible to instabilities. Transformers, the heart of the aging power system, currently average an in-service life of over 40 years. Expertise to manage the grid is rapidly diminishing due to the retirement of skilled, technical workers. Additionally, Utilities are being asked to increase grid efficiency & resiliency without investing in new capital equipment, while also supporting the integration of renewables. Overall, Utilities are under intense scrutiny by both regulatory agencies and the public, to prevent the catastrophic power system failures that have occurred over the last decades.

Solution

GE offers utilities advanced solutions to improve grid stability, support the latest cyber-security tools, and increase the efficiency of transmission networks, including reactive power solutions that cost effectively increase power transfer capabilities of existing infrastructure and self healing systems that detect instabilities and automatically reconfigure and restore networks in real time.
