What are some emerging technologies in power transmission?

2025-08-10

The power transmission industry is constantly evolving. Some of the most significant recent trends and emerging technologies include:

  • High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) Transmission: While Alternating Current (AC) is the standard, HVDC is becoming a popular choice for long-distance, high-capacity, and underwater transmission because it has lower power losses over long distances.

  • Smart Grid Technology: This involves using digital communication and automation to monitor and manage the grid in real-time, improving reliability, efficiency, and resilience against issues like power outages and cyberattacks.

  • Advanced Conductors: New materials and designs allow existing transmission lines to carry more power without overheating, which helps to increase grid capacity without building entirely new lines.

  • Dynamic Line Rating (DLR): This technology uses sensors to calculate the maximum power a line can safely carry in real-time based on environmental conditions like wind and temperature.

Our wide array of products, from overhead transmission line equipment to underground cable laying equipment, is designed to support the construction and maintenance of these modern and evolving power transmission systems. We are committed to providing the tools needed for a smarter, more reliable global grid.
