Introducing the Next Generation in Controlled Switching Solutions

Point-on-wave switching is a technique used in operating AC system switchgear and circuit-breakers to mitigate power system transients and electrical stresses that commonly occur with the switching operation. If not properly managed, these transients can cause equipment damage or failure, power quality issues, or instability in the power system and connected networks.

GE Vernova’s Grid Solutions Eco-design team delivers 1st certified Product Environmental Profile (PEP) for GE Vernova Renewable Energy’s onshore wind turbine

As the global energy transition continues, customers and regulators increasingly require specific information about a product’s environmental footprint. GE Vernova’s Eco-design team addresses that need by offering a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) which includes manufacturing information about a product, like the impact of materials production and factory energy consumption and emissions; distribution, including packaging production and transportation; use, in terms of power consumption and maintenance; and end-of-life disposal. The PEP is the document provided once the LCA is done.
