VISIT GE VERNOVA AT CIGRE 2024

Having been exposed to areas with a high penetration of renewables, GE Vernova has developed innovative solutions to manage a grid with an increasing amount of renewable generation, from bulk renewables to behind-the-meter DERs. By leveraging GridOS and its federated grid data fabric, we aim to advance grid orchestration software, contributing to the decarbonization of both the grid and society.

As the energy transition greatly stresses the supply chain, join our technical seminar to discover how GE Vernova’s sustainable digital native power transmission equipment can simplify and speed up your electrification projects and help you reach your carbon footprint reduction goals. In this exclusive session, learn more about our advanced integrated solutions where all components are set and tested in our factories to ensure improved substation performance and discover how highly accurate, real-time data sent by the primary equipment to your substation management system extends the lifespan and resilience of your assets.

The power industry is evolving. So should the software you use to understand it. Tackle the complexities of a changing energy landscape with PlanOS - the comprehensive software platform to confidently plan for a reliable, resilient, and stable energy system.

The global energy sector is transforming towards cleaner, more resilient, and efficient systems. Advanced technologies like Private LTE (PLTE), Edge Compute, and digitization solutions are key to accelerating this transition. This presentation explores how GE Vernova’s PLTE and asset monitoring solutions enable more robust, secure, and less complex modern energy grids. Topics covered will include:

• Real-time Edge Compute analytics and enhanced management outcome of distributed energy resources
• The adoption of PLTE technologies in the energy sector
• Substation-level asset monitoring solutions, and more

The GridBeats™ suite is comprised of Integrated Digital Substation (IDSS), EnergyAPM, Device Management (DvM), Zonal Autonomous Control (ZAC), and Cybersecurity solutions.

The global energy transition and rapidly growing offshore wind market are demanding floating offshore substations to make commercial-sized floating offshore wind projects viable. GE Vernova’s Grid Solutions business has developed a complete conceptual design of a semi-submersible floating offshore substation. This concept, developed for west-coast USA floating offshore sites, is one ideal solution for topside HV substation equipment, floaters, mooring systems, and dynamic cables. They can be further developed and deployed around the world. Join us to discuss the next frontier.

Historically, grid stability has been provided by large synchronous generators (coal, nuclear, and gas) that can respond to changes in grid frequency. However, the increasing use of wind and solar energy is impacting the stability of the grid. Transmission System Operators must protect their networks against possible blackouts caused by generators dropping off the grid, and the lack of synchronous inertia, short circuit capacity, and reactive power becomes a larger problem when power demand is low but renewable energy production is high. Join us for a technical session exploring current rotating stabilizers, system configurations, and solutions in the rapidly evolving grid stability markets.

Accelerated power demand and renewables integration, combined with the sunsetting of conventional power generation technology, are bringing significant challenges to grid operators. GE Vernova is proudly introducing the FACTSFLEX portfolio that enhances grid controllability, improves voltage and frequency stability, and increases the power transfer capabilities of AC transmission systems. Join us for a seminar that will cover new technologies for today’s challenges and learn more about:

• Solutions to tackle grid challenges
• Novel technologies to accelerate the energy transition, electrification, and decarbonization
• Leveraging the knowledge and experience of GE Vernova’s ecosystem

In our evolving energy landscape, the emphasis on decarbonization and grid reliability is driving digitalization and new technologies. This poses challenges in managing vast amounts of asset data and its accurate analysis and cybersecurity amid dwindling industry expertise. Without solutions, reliability concerns due to aging grid assets and fluctuating conditions, along with decreasing TOTEX spend, will burden utilities. Join this engaging seminar to learn from GE Vernova’s experts on how to manage the growing amounts of generated data with AI/ML and discover strategies to mitigate cyber risks.

The market need for Synchronous Grid-Forming (SGFM) control capabilities from all power electronic AC system-interfaced devices has been rapidly growing with the move to low or zero inertia sources of energy. HVDC is somewhat unique in that it is not a source of energy but rather a part of the transmission infrastructure that allows the dynamic movement of energy within the electrical power transmission grid. To address the needs of the current market, GE Vernova have been developing grid-forming solutions for different HVDC applications over the last two years and in the presentation, GE Vernova will highlight the different types of SGFM, as applied to HVDC, various use cases, along with the benefits and constraints imposed within a practical system.
