The SAIDI, or System Average Interruption Duration Index is a key metric for network reliability performance in the electricity industry. It corresponds to the sum of all customer interruption duration divided by the total number of customers served, offering a comprehensive gauge of service reliability.
Over recent years, Top Energy has experienced higher than expected unplanned SAIDI and reported SAIDI has increased each year. Increasingly challenging weather conditions, which are …
Traditionally, electricity distribution networks were designed for one-way power flow, from distributors to consumers. This design aligns with the original concept of electricity transmission. However, as prosumers become more prevalent, and technical solutions like grids and micro-grids emerge, it's only natural for the electricity network to evolve. This transformation involves a shift from Distribution Network Operators (DNO) to Distribution System Operators (DSO).
This transition holds immense potential, especially in optimising the utilisation of renewable electricity resources. It empowers better control and comprehension of supply and demand dynamics, …
Using advanced data analysis techniques to develop an avifauna collision risk model to assist Boffa Miskell with the assessment of ecological impacts of wind farms on birds, and, specifically, to enable robust testing of layout and design scenarios that will minimise collision risk to birds.
Boffa Miskell engaged Harmonic Analytics to replace a simple collision risk model that had been in use since 2004, with a new model that responds …
