With the commissioning of the 500 m long gasinsulated transmission line (GIL) at the Geneva Airport, Siemens is the first manufacturer of the second generation GIL world-wide. This project concluded successfully the recent development works...

In this paper, different XLPE transmission system solutions are described in terms of technology, ecology and economy. Based on the growing experience of XLPE cable systems and their qualitative improvements during the years, a condensed re...

In modern high-voltage cable systems, temperature overloads or water ingress are often limitation parameters for its lifetime. However, two highly sophisticated monitoring techniques are available to control these parameters. A system based...

Power transmission has become commercially relevant to an increasing degree. Therefore it is necessary to find out strategies for an assessment of the reliability of cable systems, especially after many years under operating conditions whic...

This paper presents an overview over different areas where flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) devices can help system operators run the transmission system more efficiently especially under the consideration of liberalized electricity...

This paper is in two parts. The first part deals with the representation of random bilateral transactions in the form of matrices which are, first of all, feasible (Kirchhoff's law) and of which some are secure (Ohm's law). The ratio of sec...

Project financing based on private initiative becomes important even in the regulated electricity sector of many countries. Whereas in former times the laws were directed to safe, reliable and macro economic power supply, the aims under der...

In a nuclear power plant, offsite and onsite electric power systems are required to provide sufficient capacity and capability to assure that the containment integrity be maintained during power operation or in case of a postulated accident...
