Article: Unlocking Grid Capacity Opens the Gates for Renewable Energy Projects

Permanent partial discharge monitoring is reshaping how utilities manage underground grids, enabling earlier fault detection and more reliable urban power networks.

RTE has completed a first‑of‑its‑kind installation on its transmission network, using a drone to deploy Ampacimon’s Dynamic Line Rating sensor on an energized overhead line.

The drive for grid performance has prompted the launch of a new $1.9B funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) aimed at developing smarter infrastructure. SPARK is set to unveil a new age for Dynamic Line Rating technology other advanced transmission technologies.
