TenneT’s Maasbracht substation has the longest SF6-free gas-insulated line installation in Europe TenneT is responsible for ensuring a reliable and secure electricity supply to more than 43 million domestic and business users across the Netherlands and Germany As the first cross-border European Transmission System Operator (TSO) TenneT plays a pioneering role in the transition to a sustainable toward which it invests in innovative high-voltage technologies to minimize the use of SF6 in the transmission network The Maasbracht substation has been in operation for several decades and is the main connector between the Netherlands The substation is a critical component of the country’s energy infrastructure and Hitachi Energy’s technology will modernize the substation by delivering over seven kilometers of its eco-efficient EconiQ GIL product which uses a game-changing technology that eliminates polluting SF6 gas and is proven to significantly reduce carbon footprint throughout its entire life cycle TenneT will achieve its sustainability goals by avoiding the addition of over 70,000 kilograms of SF6 into the transmission network which is the equivalent of removing CO2 emissions from almost 826,000 cars from the road in a year1 This project is an important investment in the energy infrastructure in the region Hitachi Energy shares our commitment to innovation and sustainability We are excited to partner with TenneT on this important project Our EconiQ technology is designed to meet the evolving needs of the energy sector while also minimizing its environmental impact We are confident that this project will deliver significant benefits to TenneT Hitachi Energy is committed to supporting the energy transition with sustainable and innovative solutions such as EconiQ This project is a testament to that commitment to enable a sustainable energy future for today’s generation and those to come The upgrade will ensure electricity reliability in Maasbracht and minimise the use of SF6 gas in the transmission network Hitachi Energy has announced that it will supply its 380kV EconiQ gas-insulated lines (GIL) to enhance TenneT’s Maasbracht substation in the Netherlands The upgrade will maintain the reliability of the electricity supply in Maasbracht and cut the use of sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) gas in the transmission network TenneT Netherlands grid field operations associate director Frank Wester stated: “This project is an important investment in the energy infrastructure in the region Hitachi Energy shares our commitment to innovation and sustainability.” which serves as a vital link in the energy infrastructure The substation has been operational for decades and the new EconiQ GIL will modernise this crucial node extending more than 7km and significantly contributing to TenneT’s environmental objectives The installation of EconiQ GIL will prevent 70,000kg of SF6 from entering the transmission network Don’t let policy changes catch you off guard Stay proactive with real-time data and expert analysis This is equivalent to the CO₂ emissions from 826,000 cars being removed from the roads annually Hitachi Energy global product

gas turbine power station known as Claus C RWE has now decided to put the mothballed power plant back online This means that the lights will soon be switched back on It will take around two years before the power station can be made operational again it is to provide electricity to up to three million households had originally been put back online following renovation work in 2012 only to be taken off the grid again two years later due to poor market conditions But the market conditions have now changed Demand for flexible capacities in Europe is ever-growing and the wholesale market has taken a turn for the better Another factor to be taken into account is the option to connect the power station to the Belgian power grid is but a stone’s throw away from the national border This means it could be connected to the high-voltage station of Belgian network operator Elia in Kinrooi via a 13 kilometre-long The neighbouring country is currently at risk of future supply shortages as the Belgian government has decided to phase-out nuclear power by 2025 This means that the hunt for alternative power sources is on The Belgian government is introducing a capacity market to facilitate this shift and is considering to prioritise an auction system to encourage investments for additional capacity Claus C could play a pivotal role in supporting Belgian security of supply The decision to put Claus C back in operation in the Netherlands is a first step By making Claus C’s capacity available to the Netherlands and Belgium RWE is offering the two countries a quick and efficient solution for a stable and sustainable energy system for the future Boasting an efficiency rate of nearly 60 percent the state-of-the-art CCGT power plant is able to use a considerably higher proportion of the energy when compared with conventional gas-fired power stations The carbon footprint per generated kilowatt hour is Following a four-year market-related hiatus it will take around two years before the gas-fired power plant can be put back in operation CEO of RWE Generation Roger Miesen sheds some light on the reasons why: “First Although it has been kept in working order over its four-year hiatus it must now be brought back into top condition we are making sure that Claus C is once again stable and secure enough to generate power over a longer period of time” We encounter energy everywhere – at home, on the street, in the office and on the workbench. But what exactly is energy? How and from what is it made? How is it stored, transported and converted?
