Ensure Compliance With Real-time Weather Intelligence
Multiple weather parameters affect transmission lines – from capacity to mechanical stress and direct damage. Temperature, wind, rain and solar irradiance can have significant impact on lines and capacity as well.
As the regulatory landscape evolves, these challenges affect the ability to ensure grid reliability and efficiency. The new Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) 881 mandate requires the integration of real-time weather data into transmission line ratings, leaving many utilities grappling with implementation.
