ACDC 2015 is your chance to meet and share your latest research with AC and DC specialists worldwide, at a time of huge technical advancements for the improvement of power transmission.
Since 2010, ACDC power transmission technologies and projects have been gathering pace, structure and importance for the power sector.
New technologies have developed with potential to give benefit to asset managers and system operators, particularly with regards to high voltage transmission. ACDC 2015 will examine key developments, including:
Offshore generation increase
Vast distance transmission requirements of growing economies such as India and China
Improvements in the reliability and efficiency of aging grid systems such as those in the UK and US
There have also been changes in the marketplace, with further de-regulation and the growth of merchant transmission schemes, not to mention investment in the billions of pounds and increasing, as the need to transmit power from renewable sources is ever more pressing.
ACDC 2015 will look closely at the importance of renewable energy:
The impact of wider implementation of renewable technologies on network development
The increasing need to transmit power over longer distances, including cross-country border/ grid transmission
Why attend?
By attending ACDC 2015, you will update your knowledge of:
The latest advances in HVDC and HVAC technologies, including FACTS devices
Recent AC and DC projects being implemented worldwide
New challenges arising from environmental, regulatory, political and social factors, and how they impact on the development of transmission networks
