The metering system of the new generation smart substation is a digital energy metering system, which consists of an electronic voltage transformer, an electronic current transformer, a merging unit and a digital energy meter or a multi-function device integrated with a digital energy meter function and an electric energy collecting terminal.
With these new technologies, the aims of high degree of integration system, reasonable structure, advanced equipment, and economic energy saving are expected to be achieved. As a major part of the smart grid, the smart substation has entered a comprehensive construction stage.
The development strategy and planning should be made through the top design of new generation smart substations. The top-level design is a system project composed of a construction goal, key technology research, key equipment development, and near-long-term conceptual design scheme.
The new generation smart substation will focus on new equipment, new materials, new technologies, primary electricity, and secondary light, which is characterized by power electronic technology and can rapidly achieve flexible control of energy and contains AC and DC mixed supply function.
The project will be completed mid-2026 when the Government of Niue under the Department of Utilities and Niue Power Corporation (NPC) will take over the ownership. We anticipate savings of 816,000 litres of fuel and 2,202 tCO2e in year one. It will support Niue to deliver on our climate goals and Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs).
In addition to Australia’s support, the New Zealand Government contributed $2.5 million to relocate and restore Niue’s Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). This funding has allowed the Ministry to repair the grid control system, procure necessary fuel tanks, and install cabling and connections.
The Minister of Infrastructure, Hon. Crossley Tatui extended his appreciation to the Australian and New Zealand Governments, saying, “The construction of this new power station is a vital piece of infrastructure for Niue’s development and well-being. This achievement would not have been possible without the support of our regional partners.”
The Ministry of Infrastructure celebrated the so5 launch of Niue’s New Power Sta;on on the 7th November 2024. The launch marks a cri;cal milestone in Niue’s journey to strengthen and modernize its energy infrastructure.
Off-Grid Installer have the answer with a containerized solar system from 3 kw up wards. Systems are fitted in new fully fitted containers either 20 or 40 foot depending on the size required.
Solar equipment is very reliable but occasionally parts may fail so there is need to monitor and solve any problems. Off Grid Solar container units guarantee security and reliability and allow the engineering team to complete installations in a few days rather than weeks.
Attaching to the grid can also be expensive and this can be an issue in the UK as well as Africa or Latin America. An Off Grid solar Container unit can be used in a host of applications including agriculture, mining, tourism, remote islands, widespread lighting, telecoms and rural medical centres.
To minimize the dependence on grid-supplied electricity, ports are also investing in renewable generation notably PV solar on warehouse roofing and parking areas. Energy storage is also needed to optimize utilization of in-port generation and avoid curtailment when generation exceeds the available demand.
Go big with our modular design for easy additional solar power capacity. Customize your container according to various configurations, power outputs, and storage capacity according to your needs. Lower your environmental impact and achieve sustainability objectives by using clean, renewable solar energy.
ESSOP has explored two ways in which ports can minimize their energy costs by using energy storage: • Optimising how to use PV solar generation to offset grid electricity. The wholesale price of energy varies every half-hour, and on a time-of-day tariff this variation is passed onto users.
Customize your container according to various configurations, power outputs, and storage capacity according to your needs. Lower your environmental impact and achieve sustainability objectives by using clean, renewable solar energy. Lower energy/maintenance costs ensure operational savings.
