National Grid Pathfinder

Project Details

We designed and delivered synchronous condenser substations to stabilize the UK grid amid increasing renewable energy penetration. This critical infrastructure compensates for inertia lost from non-synchronous sources (wind/solar/storage), preventing blackouts and enabling secure decarbonization.
