Expert Exchange on Network Integration of PV and CSP

5th International Solar Integration Workshop, 19-20 October 2015 in Brussels

The integration of renewable energy generators into the electricity grid is a critical factor in the restructuring of the energy sector. Experience and best-practice from projects in Europe and around the world will be showcased at the 5th Solar Integration Workshop, which runs in Brussels from the 19th to 20th October 2015. You may register online until 11th October.


"At the conference we expect again a large number of highly-experienced experts from companies and leading research institutes, who will exchange ideas and report on their latest experiences" says Dr. Thomas Ackermann, CEO of the organizer Energynautics GmbH.

The spectrum of topics ranges from Photovoltaic (PV) power plants to Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) and from the integration of solar power in distribution networks to questions of supply security. Flexibility from conventional generators, insolation forecasts and grid code issues will also be intensively discussed.

In the program there is also the opportunity to take part in the "Solar Dinner" on the first evening of the event. Directly after the one-and-a-half-day conference follows the 14th Wind Integration Workshop from 20th to 22nd October 2015 at the same location. Participants of both events can profit from special discount rates. On 23rd October 2015 there is an excursion to the network expansion project "Stevin", carried out by network operator Elia near the Belgian coast.

The Solar Integration Workshop takes place at the Sheraton Brussels Airport Hotel and the conference language is English. The program and registration rates can be found here: http://www.solarintegrationworkshop.org/

HPS EnduraCoilTM Cast Resin Medium Voltage Transformer

HPS EnduraCoilTM Cast Resin Medium Voltage Transformer

HPS EnduraCoil is a high-performance cast resin transformer designed for many demanding and diverse applications while minimizing both installation and maintenance costs. Coils are formed with mineral-filled epoxy, reinforced with fiberglass and cast to provide complete void-free resin impregnation throughout the entire insulation system. HPS EnduraCoil complies with the new NRCan 2019 and DOE 2016 efficiency regulations and is approved by both UL and CSA standards. It is also seismic qualified per IBC 2012/ASCE 7-10/CBC 2013. Cast resin transformers are self-extinguishing in the unlikely event of fire, environmentally friendly and offer greater resistance to short circuits. HPS also offers wide range of accessories for transformer protection and monitoring requirements.
