A synchronous condenser is a sophisticated piece of equipment capable of regulating reactive power dynamically and of allowing voltage regulation of electrical networks. In Australia, Omexom has recently installed a 190 MVAr (over 900 MVA peak) synchronous condenser to enable the connection of the Kiamal solar power plant to the electricity transmission network.
Already installed on some cruise ships, diesel-electric propulsion is now appearing on trawlers. At the helm, a Guilvinec-based shipowner, assisted by Barillec Marine, a VINCI Energies business unit specialising in electric and hybrid propulsion systems and the management, production and storage of energy for ship owners and shipyards.
The city of Yaoundé entrusted Omexom with the implementation of an integrated solution for local energy production, storage and management. The project has significant implications for this African city’s 2.7 million residents and businesses.
Axians, the ICT brand of VINCI Energies, adds knowledge and expertise of open-source and database specialist Cygnis in the Netherlands. Adding this specialist knowledge adds immediate value in the field of cloud, container and database platforms.
