GOSSEN METRAWATT presents a new generation of multifunctional process calibrators for field use. The METRACAL CM series combines a calibrator and precise multimeter in a compact handheld device. Users can simultaneously simulate galvanically isolated sensor signals and measure output signals up to 30 VDC without time-consuming switching. The device measures and displays electrical quantities such […]

What’s driving a fundamental shift in engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contracting? Equipment lead times. Workforce shortages. Data center timelines. POWER examines how the traditional EPC

Ameren Missouri faced a pivotal moment in its growth and reliability journeys. The large investor-owned utility identified a high-risk section in its St. Louis-area service: aging manual switchgear combined with a growing base of commercial and industrial customers. This need was made evident by: Extended Outages. Cable faults caused lengthy outages that were difficult to […]

Fireaway Inc., a global leader in fire suppression technology, announces the European introduction of UltraSense sensors, an advanced early-stage hazard detection system engineered to integrate seamlessly with the company’s proven Stat-X condensed aerosol fire suppression systems. Together, Stat-X and UltraSense deliver a unified, intelligent approach to fire protection—combining rapid detection, precise suppression, and unmatched reliability. […]

The global solar boom has introduced a new urgency around asset durability, performance, and risk. As utility-scale solar farms become more common, so do the invisible defects that compromise long-term generation and reliability. While traditional visual and infrared (IR) inspections are still a common practice, a more advanced diagnostic method is emerging as an invaluable […]

Vegetation is a much-needed part of the natural world and is essential for life to thrive on Earth. Yet, when unmanaged, it’s also one of the greatest threats to the grid and a leading culprit for causing outages. Fallen branches topple powerlines, roots damage underground cables, and overgrown trees close to energized wires are known […]

Despite nuclear power’s unmatched ability to produce reliable, carbon-free energy at scale, it is often dismissed by clean energy advocates in favor of renewable resources like wind and solar. Cost arguments and public misconceptions around safety and radioactive waste have kept it out of many mainstream climate strategies. But as Tim Gregory argues in his […]

Ensuring compliance in power generation projects is non-negotiable—and it’s no longer a box to tick at the end of a project. It now demands continuous oversight, code alignment, and documentation from the very first planning meeting to final handover. For project teams in the energy sector, this shift comes at a time of tighter National […]

The electric power industry is undergoing a transformative shift, driven by increasing grid complexity and the integration of renewable energy sources, while still providing reliable, affordable energy. At the heart of this evolution is the role of the distribution system operator (DSO), a position critical to managing the modern distribution grid. Historically, the DSO role […]

The white paper underscores the transformative potential of hybridizing offshore wind energy, emphasizing the integration of hybrid technologies, e.g. energy storage systems (BESS), to enhance the reliability, stability, and economic feasibility of offshore wind farms. This approach mitigates the intermittency of wind power, resulting in a more consistent and predictable energy output. By contributing to grid stability […]
