UK National Grid Project Extension using SmartValve™ to Unlock a Further 500 MW of Capacity on UK Electricity System
Following the successful installation of SmartValve earlier this year – unlocking 1.5 GW of extra capacity in what was the world’s first large-scale use of modular power flow technology – National Grid is now adding more devices to unlock an additional 500 MW on the existing network. This modular solution scales in-line with network needs, provides faster installation timeframes and minimizes additional site work and costs. 
Transformational Power Flow Control Technology Unlocks Cross-Border Electricity Capacity in Southeastern Europe
We’re delighted to announce the successful deployment of our SmartValve technology in Greece on the IPTO-Independent Power Transmission Operator network. By intelligently controlling the flows of power across the network, this technology is unlocking extra capacity and significantly increase cross-border flows between Greece and Bulgaria.
