As electricity demand rises and more renewables connect to the grid, transmission infrastructure is under pressure like never before. Building new lines takes time, but what if we could unlock more capacity from the ones we already have?
Dynamic line ratings (DLR) are offering a smarter, faster path to grid optimisation. Harnessing AI-powered software enables transmission system operators to monitor real-time environmental conditions and safely increase the capacity of overhead lines. By replacing conservative static ratings with live data, DLR allows grid operators to unlock headroom, defer capital expenditure, and accelerate the integration of clean energy, all without adding new steel to the ground.
In this episode of Transmission, Quentin sits down with Georg Rute, CEO and co-founder of Gridraven, to explore how dynamic line ratings. Over the course of the conversation, you’ll hear about:
