Smart Grid and distribution network
We are taking all necessary steps for strengthening the required transmission of Smart Grid and distribution"
Inaugurating the three-day exhibition, Shri Thiru A Namassivayam, Home Minister & Power Minister UT of Puducherry said, “We are taking all necessary steps for strengthening the required transmission, implementation of Smart Grid and distribution network, encouraging renewables, undertaking customer-centric initiatives and reduction of Aggregate Technical and Commercial (AT&C) losses."
"We will be investing Rs 350 cr in energy infrastructure shortly. I invite the electrical industry to come and invest there and we will provide all the required support. I also invite IEEMA for a CEOs summit in Puducherry.”
energy mix
Commenting on the same, Mr. Vipul Ray, President of IEEMA, said, “India is on a path of transforming its energy mix with innovation. Along with enhancing energy production, the nation also needs to cut AT&C losses to below 12% by 2022, and below 10% by 2027."
"This is possible only through digitization of the grid and adoption of the latest technology, all of which is displayed in these twin exhibitions Distribuelec and Buildelec.”
energy efficiency reduced environmental impact
Plans are being set in place to develop green cities across the country that shall be powered by renewable energy"
Mr. Shashi Amin, Chairman of Buildelec stated, “India is moving towards a greener future, slowly but steadily. The people and industries are getting aware of energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact. India is moving towards cleaner fuels."
"Plans are also being set in place to develop green cities across the country that shall be powered by renewable energy. These cities will draw power through rooftop solar systems, solar parks, waste recovery plants, and electric conveyance systems. This shows that the demand is healthy for green products and technologies necessary for a green future.”
INTELECT conference
Simultaneously, the INTELECT conference centered on the Resilient and Sustainable distribution Paradigm is being held, which has Knowledge Packed sessions on Energy Transition, Distribution challenges and way forward, Industry Challenges, and Vision 2047, the role of Private Utility, New World of Energy and Next-Gen Technologies.
The Buildelec conference on day 3 would cover sessions on Burning Technology Challenges in Sustainable Data Centre Buildings & Innovations in Electrical Fire Safety under the theme Resilient & Sustainable Buildings; while Buyer Seller Meet, 1-2-1 meetings would host domestic buyers representing DISCOMs, PSUs, EPCs, Railways and Building developers.
improve quality and reliability of supply
India and several other developing countries are expanding and improving their distribution network to supply 24x7 power to their citizens. Growth in load and distributed generation brings new challenges for the distribution network. Utilities are also deploying state-of-the-art technologies to improve the quality and reliability of supply and also reduce losses.
These challenges can be overcome only with the amalgamation of electrical equipment and digital network technology. Distribuelec, India's only Exhibition on Hi-Tech Power Distribution would showcase products, technologies, and services from 220V to 33KV.
