How do power companies and manufacturers like Ningbo Changshi improve transmission efficiency?
2025-08-09Improving transmission efficiency is a major focus for the entire power industry. Companies address this in several key ways:
-
Increasing Voltage: This is the most effective method. By using step-up transformers to raise the voltage for long-distance transmission, the current is drastically reduced. According to the power loss formula (), this action significantly cuts down on resistive losses.
-
Using Superior Conductors: The choice of material and design for power line conductors is critical. We provide equipment to install conductors with larger diameters or bundled conductors, which reduce resistance and help minimize corona discharge.
-
Adopting Advanced Technology: Modern solutions like High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) systems are more efficient for transmitting power over very long distances and submarine cables compared to traditional High-Voltage Alternating Current (HVAC) systems. Additionally, smart grid technologies use sensors and monitoring tools to optimize power flow in real-time, preventing bottlenecks and reducing overall losses.
Our company's products are integral to these solutions, helping our customers build and maintain a more efficient and reliable power grid.
