Ingeteam's three-phase inverters INGECON SUN 20TL M, INGECON SUN 33TL M, INGECON SUN 100TL PRO and INGECON SUN 160TL PRO are already being manufactured with these new improvements, which allow them to withstand a higher input current to be able to use them with the new models of more powerful photovoltaic panels. This means savings in DC cabling in the entire photovoltaic plant, since as each inverter admits more current per string, the total number of strings required is reduced. This also leads to savings in construction work. Thus, solar inverters between 20 and 33 kW with two Maximum Power Point Trackers (MPPT) now support up to 12A for each PV connector. The INGECON SUN 100TL PRO solar inverter supports up to 15A per connector, while the INGECON SUN 160TL PRO inverter now supports a maximum current of 20A per photovoltaic connector. This inverter designed for large photovoltaic plants is suitable for solar panel models designed with both 182 mm and 210 mm wafers, which already exceed 600 W of power. For these types of plants, Ingeteam also offers the String Station, a turnkey LV-to-MV transformer station with 1500 Vdc string inverters.

This is a Hazitek project, co-financed through the European Regional Development Fund 2014-2020 (ERDF). Ingeteam expects the first ship with this technology to start operating in 2022.   Ingeteam is immersed in a new R&D development to stabilise ships during heavy part loading and unloading manoeuvres, mainly for oil platforms or offshore wind farms. It involves a new advanced control system for ships transporting high-tonnage parts, which performs a comprehensive analysis of on board elements when the vessel's crane is used for loading and unloading manoeuvres, and which automatically compensates the water in hold tanks to stabilise the vessel. The project has gained €500,000 in investment, and the support of the Basque Government's Hazitek Business R&D programme and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). It should be noted that these heavy Floating Crane Installation Vessels specialise in the transport of parts for offshore oil platforms or offshore wind turbines and can have a considerable tonnage. Unlike jackup rigs, crane vessels are faster at facilities as they do not use anchor legs, although they do require stability and positioning control due to the large size and weight of the parts they handle. Loading and unloading manoeuvres are delicate, as the crane can cause the vessel to heel or even sink. To prevent the ship from capsizing, heeling must be compensated by a counterweight to ensure the stability of the vessel by using water to fill different hold tanks in the ship. By installing pumps in the hold, it is possible to speed up the transfer of water between on board storage compartments, and thereby act as a counterweight to adapt the load level during the operation. The new advanced control system, developed by Ingeteam, enables this weight compensation system to be automated in order to stabilise manoeuvres at sea, by employing a mathematical model capable of predicting the torsional moment, anticipating its effect, and maintaining stability. By monitoring all of the ship’s elements via the installation of sensors, real-time measurements can be obtained of the ship's inclination, or tank levels, and used to produce a simulation of the distribution of the weight and forces in the ship. The system operates pumps to transfer the water between the different tanks, counteracting any possible imbalances that may be created during a manoeuvre. This project, called Antiheeling 4.0, represents a breakthrough in the sector, as it automates stabilisation by controlling ship ballast and draught during loading and unloading operations at sea, thus ensuring safer and more effective manoeuvres. Ingeteam expects the first ship with this technology to start operating in 2022. To better visualise its operation, Ingeteam has created a digital twin of the first vessel where the system will be installed, with a crane capable of handling weights of 5,000 tonnes. This will make it possible to simulate the behaviour of the system and conduct testing, and thereby improve its performance and efficiency before implementation.

This scheme is aligned with Ingeteam's sustainability goals, as it not only avoids the use of herbicides but also fosters the development of local livestock farming. "Solar grazing" keeps 265 MW of solar power plants working on a site of around 700 hectares, reducing maintenance costs and eliminating environmental impact.   Ingeteam is engaged in a pioneering scheme for the maintenance of photovoltaic solar power plants that involves working with local shepherds. This mutual assistance system enables Ingeteam to offer more sustainable, environmentally-friendly maintenance and foster the development of rural areas at the same time. The production of solar power as a sustainable resource has been given a boost in recent years. Ingeteam Service maintains around 8 GW of PV output at more than 550 solar plants all over the world, making it one of the sector's leading service providers. However, there are still challenges to be tackled in large-scale solar power plant operation and maintenance. Solar panels need space, occupying land traditionally used for farming. Grass, weeds and other vegetation cast shadows that prevent plants from running optimally. Sites also need to be mown, cleared and cleaned up, which means that someone must access the restricted areas below the facilities. Herbicides need to be used to prevent uncontrolled growth of vegetation and ensure that PV farms work properly. Solar grazing In this context, Ingeteam has set up a solar grazing scheme, consisting of having flocks of sheep grazing on PV farms. This keeps 265 MW of solar power plants working on a site of around 700 hectares, reducing maintenance costs and eliminating the environmental impact caused by conventional methods. Using sheep as a natural way of helping to maintain plants is in line with Ingeteam's environmentally-friendly principles, but it also has clear advantages. For instance, grazing helps keep down the vegetation around the panels, thus ensuring consistent, optimum performance at the plant; it eliminates the need for machinery and chemicals; and it enables local sheep farmers to share the land used for renewable energy production. The presence of shepherds on the site also reduces the risk of theft. The panels provide shade, protection and shelter for pregnant ewes, foster development and prevent population loss in rural areas.

Ingeocean offers a set of innovative technologies for offshore wind farm simulation, integrating environmental databases, advanced software and Ingeteam's wind farm operation experience and know-how. Ingeteam has developed a set of innovative technologies for the optimisation of activities related to the operation and maintenance of offshore wind farms, reducing uncertainty and operating costs. Ingeocean, as an advanced software tool, integrates historical environmental databases, and enables analysis of different scenarios, facilitating decision-making during the construction, operation and maintenance of offshore wind farms. Offshore wind energy is one of the renewable energy sector's main commitments for the coming decades. Offshore platforms make it possible, producing a greater amount of wind energy in less time, but they require a large investment due to the marine environment where they are installed. Construction, operation and maintenance-related activities require specialised vessels and qualified equipment, with more complicated and unsafe access for technical personnel. To improve decision-making both before and during platform installation and operation, Ingeteam has developed Ingeocean in conjunction with the Environmental Hydraulics Institute of the University of Cantabria (IHCantabria), an advanced tool aimed at analysing variables and influencing factors, to support the parties involved (investors, developers, builders, supply chain, etc.) by answering questions such as: what type of offshore wind project should be implemented? Where should it be located, and what should its characteristics be? This innovative tool analyses, on one hand, the usual wind turbine operational errors, and on the other hand, a series of meteorological and environmental factors such as waves, currents, and wind, as well as the offshore behaviour of the system comprised of the auxiliary vessels and wind farm structures during personnel transfer between them. Thanks to indicators such as average repair and wait times, as well as other dynamics specific to the offshore environment such as navigability to the farm, it is possible to statistically analyse different technical O&M alternatives in the face of a wide variety of possible operational scenarios for the farm. This facilitates decision-making during the preliminary phases of the development of an offshore wind farm project, as well as during its construction, operation, and maintenance. Ingeocean not only facilitates decision-making during the development of an offshore wind farm but also reduces operation and maintenance costs by providing accurate information regarding the best times to carry out such tasks. Ingeocean is a pioneering and innovative tool that constitutes an important advance in the sector. Compared to other tools that focus solely on the analysis of metocean parameters, this innovative solution integrates data and statistics on the reliability of critical wind farm elements and considers the offshore behaviour of the vessel-platform system, thereby providing a realistic picture of the phenomena that take place and the risks present. It also provides a reliable picture of the cost projections associated with such activities, enabling the customisation and optimisation of operation and maintenance strategies for any offshore wind farm.   Fri, 06 Aug 2021 07:00:00 GMT f1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:3217 https://www.ingeteam.com/it/Redazione/tabid/3366/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/3219/language/en-US/Iberdrola-Disfrimur-and-Ingeteam-will-develop-the-first-Mediterranean-Corridor-for-100-electric-heavy-transport.aspx#Comments 0 https://www.ingeteam.com/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=3366&ModuleID=3021&ArticleID=3219 https://www.ingeteam.com:443/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=3219&PortalID=1&TabID=3366 https://www.ingeteam.com/it/Redazione/tabid/3366/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/3219/language/en-US/Iberdrola-Disfrimur-and-Ingeteam-will-develop-the-first-Mediterranean-Corridor-for-100-electric-heavy-transport.aspx The initiative would complete more than 450 km of emission-free route between the Region of Murcia and the Valencian Community and plans to be extended to the rest of the freight corridors in the country. The project includes the acquisition of heavy trucks, the development of innovative, very high power charging infrastructure (1 MW electric chargers) and the deployment of a smart grid.   The first Mediterranean Corridor for heavy road transport, 100% electric, will run through the Region of Murcia and the Valencian Community. However, the aim of this initiative includes its extension to the rest of the country's freight corridors in the coming years. Among the main promoters of this project are Iberdrola, the transport and logistics company Disfrimur and Ingeteam. Our job as a company specialised in power electronics will be the development of charging infrastructure for the entire corridor. We will be responsible for the installation of charging points at Disfrimur's logistics bases and at other stations equipped with very high-power chargers for the intercity route. The initiative includes two further objectives: the acquisition of 100% electric heavy trucks weighing up to 40 tons and the deployment of a smart grid in order to service the installed chargers, ensuring maximum efficiency. The electric charging stations will initially be located at Disfrimur's logistics centres in Sangonera La Seca (Murcia) and San Isidro (Alicante). As the project progresses, new chargers will be deployed en route and at other Disfrimur logistics bases, covering the entire Benicarló (Castellón) - Puerto Lumbreras (Murcia) route. In total, there will be more than 450 km of road for the emission-free transport of goods. Very high power chargers (up to 1 MW) The project is also a pioneer in the development and use of very high power electric chargers, up to 1 MW, a technology that is in the process of standardisation. At Ingeteam we are developing recharging points following the future MCS (Megawatt Charging System) standard. This new protocol is aimed at fast charging (20-30 minutes) of heavy vehicles such as trucks or buses with batteries with a capacity of 200-600 KWh. In order to work properly, the charging voltage will be raised to 1,500V and current to more than 1,000A. Want to know more about our chargers for electric vehicles? Click here!

The Chamalire village school in Malawi finally has an electricity supply thanks to the project implemented by the Zikomo Africa NGO. The village is located close to the parish of Benga in the central area of the country. This project has made it possible to improve not only the students’ possibilities of studying but also the quality of life and working conditions of the teaching staff, as they now have light and electricity in their homes. Nine teachers' homes and one girls' dormitory, built so that young girls no longer need to face the dangers of travelling a number of kilometers to their home villages at night, are also now benefiting from this clean energy system. Until now, neither the school nor any other building in Chamalire had an electricity supply. The installation has 20 solar panels which generate 7.2 kW of solar power, and a lithium battery energy storage system with a capacity of 19.3 kWh. The Ingeteam hybrid inverter, equipped with an EMS energy management system, is responsible for controlling the entire energy supply to the installation. The INGECON SUN STORAGE 6TL M inverter, with a rated power output of 6 kW, features two photovoltaic inputs for up to 11.5 kW of solar power, and a battery input that is valid for high voltage and low voltage batteries alike. Although in this case the inverter is functioning as a stand-alone system, it can also operate in grid-connected systems in either self-consumption or back-up mode. Ingeteam has highlighted the good work of the Zikomo Africa NGO in Malawi and the ease with which this collaboration has been performed, coming within the framework of the corporate social responsibility (CSR) actions that Ingeteam assiduously carries out.

Political authorities in the majority of countries around the world have finally got down to work and established guidelines to support this transition. Particularly in Europe, the strategy outlined in "The Green Deal" will allocate a large portion of the "Next Generation EU" recovery plan investment to finance this transition. The other factor in solving the equation is technological development. In this sense, a clear effort has been made in the past few years to obtain increasingly competitive technology solutions related to renewable energies and electrification. Therefore, it has been possible to offer the market renewable generation solutions that are more competitive for the same installed power capacity than conventional generation facilities, and electrical energy has increased its share of consumption like never before with electric mobility, industrial heating and cooling, storage, etc. The pace of deployment of the electricity infrastructure needed to accommodate new generation assets, electricity interconnections, new electricity consumers, self-consumption, etc., is key to facilitating investment in the technological development of the energy industry supply chain. This phenomenon must consider the specific reality of electricity generation based on the natural environment. Thus, conditions at certain geographical locations will be more favourable for the implementation of new generation plants: wind, solar photovoltaic, hydroelectric, biomass or biofuel. Energy conversion technology must be developed to offer the best possible solutions in each case. In this sense, work is ongoing on power electronics platforms and electric generators to establish the optimal combinations that will provide the best yields from available energy sources: sun, wind, water, biomass. On the other end of the power transmission line, lie electricity consumers, and therein lies the other energy challenge: achieve the most efficient possible consumption of available energy. Once again, energy conversion systems must be intelligently applied to current and future energy consumption needs, electric vehicles (road and rail), maritime electric propulsion systems for all types of vessels, and in the not-so-distant future, air transport. Hydrogen has recently gained momentum as an energy application vector to be developed in the near future. The challenges posed by energy for human beings are many, but thanks to power conversion technology we will be capable of meeting them to ensure sustainability. Always through the prism of renewable energies. As we have been saying for some years now at Ingeteam, “the future will be renewable, or there won’t be a future”. Our challenge is to place electrical and electronic technology at the service of the evolution required by the new solutions for harnessing renewable resources so that this almost infinite natural resource can be channelled towards achieving the final goal of electrical energy consumption: clean consumption.

Ingeteam and BYD have tested and certified at their respective R&D laboratories, the compatibility of the BYD Battery-Box Premium HVS and HVM high voltage batteries with Ingeteam's INGECON® SUN STORAGE 1Play TL M hybrid inverter (solar-plus-storage inverter). The use of both items of equipment together makes it possible to create hybrid systems that combine PV power generation with energy storage, with no need to add additional solar PV inverters. Moreover, Ingeteam's hybrid inverter, in combination with the BYD batteries, allows for operation in off-grid, back-up (UPS) and self-consumption modes. Thus, for grid-connected systems, the solar energy generated during the day can be stored for night-time consumption, giving the highest possible self-consumption ratios and, thanks to the possibility of operating in backup mode (UPS), the power supply is maintained in the event of a grid outage. The BYD high-voltage lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, with capacities ranging from 5.1 kWh to 22.1 kWh (depending on the model) are designed for residential and commercial use. Their patented modular plug-in design makes it possible to connect the different battery modules with no need for wiring, making installation incredibly quick and easy. Specifically, the following BYD battery models are compatible with the Ingeteam hybrid inverter: HVS (5.1, 7.7 and 10.2) and HVM (8.3, 11.0, 13.8, 16.6, 19.3 and 22.1). For its part, the Ingeteam inverter makes it possible to connect a battery bank and two PV arrays to the same unit, thereby reducing the cost of the system as a whole. It features two PV inputs, each of which has its own maximum power point tracking system (MPPT), allowing it to manage up to 11.5 kW of power from the solar panels which can be roof-mounted with two orientations. This 3 or 6 kW single-phase transformerless inverter has been designed for use in residential and commercial installations alike. Moreover, this inverter is supplied with the EMS control system as standard, allowing it to deploy advanced functionalities with no need to add another device for additional control. The monitoring of the hybrid system is carried out easily and intuitively thanks to the software developed by Ingeteam: INGECON® SUN Monitor, which allows access to all the data of the photovoltaic installation, the batteries, etc., so that the user has total control over his/her electricity consumption.

Bandwidth up to 4KHz (communication with remote I/Os with up to 250 us for input reading and output writing). Isochronous. Allows sampling and remote action in the event of a sampling error / action better than 1 us. Auto-detection (Plug&Play). The master (IC2p) uses the logical address (slave number from 0 to 31, configured in the master for that slave and in the slave with switches) and automatically detects the slave in the bus, switching to OPERATE mode with the slave (if that slave is configured in the master). HotSwap. The slave is detected on-the-fly and can be hot-inserted in the bus. 100Mbits physical. Multimaster. The same physical bus can run several masters over various slaves (current ratio 1 to 1, with future slave capacity to publish data to “n” masters, depending on monitoring requirements). Coexistence with conventional TCP/IP traffic for other elements in the network (the iRTSX bus coexists in a conventional Ethernet network, without the need for an exclusive medium) but does not allow TCPIP exchange between the iRTXS master and slave. Up to 35 m  between two active components (limited by the attenuation of the ETH that is used). An active component is a switch, a master, a slave, etc. Publisher/Subscriber in OPERATE mode.   Izaskun Apraiz Elguezabal | Automation Devices Marketing Manager Mon, 05 Jul 2021 07:32:00 GMT f1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:3194 https://www.ingeteam.com/it/Redazione/tabid/3366/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/3193/language/en-US/Ingeteam-and-the-CFAA-Advanced-Aeronautics-Manufacturing-Centre-collaborate-in-monitoring-machining-processes-for-the-aeronautics-industry.aspx#Comments 0 https://www.ingeteam.com/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=3366&ModuleID=3021&ArticleID=3193 https://www.ingeteam.com:443/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=3193&PortalID=1&TabID=3366 https://www.ingeteam.com/it/Redazione/tabid/3366/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/3193/language/en-US/Ingeteam-and-the-CFAA-Advanced-Aeronautics-Manufacturing-Centre-collaborate-in-monitoring-machining-processes-for-the-aeronautics-industry.aspx Last April, Ingeteam supplied the CFAA with an INGESYS IC3 system to monitor high-sensitivity sensors that will be integrated in a broaching bench used to perform R&D on machining processes for low-pressure turbine discs for aircraft engines.

Ø  The first units have already been installed in various solar plants in Spain.   The new power station designed and manufactured by Ingeteam is directed at solar plants equipped with string inverters instead of central inverters. Specifically, this solution has been designed to be installed in combination with the INGECON SUN 160TL solar inverters made by Ingeteam with 1500 Vdc technology. The design of the string station seeks to facilitate as much as possible the installation work and field connection. This is why it is supplied as a turnkey solution, with all the devices pre-connected at the factory. Moreover, it can be transported by land or sea, as it can be mounted directly on a truck trailer or inside a 40-foot container, so that it can be delivered anywhere. A further advantage of this solution is its flexibility, given that it can hold from one to four AC combiner boxes, responsible for receiving all the AC cabling coming from the solar inverters. Therefore, the power output range of the string station can vary from 1.6 MW up to 6.4 MW, allowing Ingeteam to cater for all types of project sizes and layouts. In addition to the AC combiner boxes, the string station is also equipped with the LV/MV power transformer, transformer oil tank, medium voltage switchgear, auxiliary services panel and auxiliary services transformer, for maximum optimization of the available space. All these components are certified to IEC standards. The first string station units were manufactured in Spain and are now installed in various Spanish solar projects. This new product strengthens Ingeteam's scope of supply for the solar sector, to which the Group supplies many other products and services.

The INGESYS IC3 communicates via a fieldbus with the various subsystems that comprise the vessel’s electrical and propulsion plant, among which are frequency converters, the battery-based energy storage system and the auxiliary diesel generator unit. It is also equipped with direct inputs/outputs and remote I/O units for the sensors installed in all the vessel’s auxiliary services.   Functional diagram of the Ortze vessel The functions performed by the INGESYS IC3 to govern the vessel are as follows, among others: Automatic management and reconfiguration of the vessel’s operating modes (Solely electric, Diesel-Electric, Hybrid, Shore, Battery recharge) via control and command of the frequency converters and automatic breakers in the electrical plant. Power Management System or PMS function, by which the INGESYS IC3 calculates the power limits to apply to the propulsion and service subsystems, depending on the power available in the generation and storage plant. Energy Management System or EMS function, by which the INGESYS IC3 establishes energy strategies according to the energy available in the batteries and the mission or operation being performed by the vessel. Automatic control and command of all the vessel’s auxiliary services: salt and fresh water pumps, extractors, cooling systems, fuel pumps, etc. Centralised alarm management of all the vessel’s systems on the bridge. Communication with the central SCADA system on the bridge to monitor all the vessel’s variables in real time in synoptic fashion to assist in controlling the electrical plant and its maintenance. With a total of approximately 1300 processed inputs/outputs (150 are direct and 1150 are communication inputs/outputs with the frequency converters, batteries and Genset), the INGESYS IC3 is an essential mainstay for the functioning and operation of the ORTZE vessel, which combined with the rest of the vessel’s components, forms a breakthrough technological solution for a vessel of these characteristics. The modernisation of the vessel has been carried out through the installation of a new propulsion system based on a hybrid power plant, developed at the Basque company's facilities in Zamudio and Beasain. Specifically, at its Biscayan plant, Ingeteam has developed the power electronics converters and the control systems that propel the new training ship, including the battery storage system and the intelligent management of the energy on board. And in the factory of Guipuzcoa, Indar, the Ingeteam Group has developed the energy-efficient, compact, low-noise permanent magnet electric motor, which drives the ship's main propulsion propeller.

Ø  The first units are already being installed in various photovoltaic plants.   Pamplona, Spain. 11th of March, 2021. Ingeteam has designed its new INGECON SUN FSK power station aimed at large-scale solar plants and battery energy storage systems, since its nominal power allows it to reach 7.2 MW of medium-voltage output power. This new design has been thought to make installation and connection work in the field as easy as possible. For this reason, it is supplied with all the elements previously connected at the factory. In addition, this solution can be transported both by land and by sea, since it can be placed directly on the trailer of a truck or inside a 40-foot container, allowing it to be installed anywhere in the world. The first units of this full skid type power station have been manufactured in Navarre, Spain, and are already being supplied to various photovoltaic projects. Flexibility is another advantage of this solution, since it can integrate from one to four solar or battery inverters (1500 Vdc or 1000 Vdc), so its output power range varies from 1 MW to 7.2 MW, which allows Ingeteam to adapt to all types of project configurations and sizes. Apart from the inverters, this power station also integrates the LV/MV power transformer, the transformer oil tank, the medium voltage switchgear, the auxiliary services panel and the auxiliary services transformer, thus optimizing as much as possible the use of the available space. This product reinforces Ingeteam's scope of supply for the solar sector and the energy storage sector, for which the Group supplies many other products and services.

This transformation is contributing not only towards more profitable operations but also to an increase in availability, reliability and sustainability throughout the entire energy supply. One of the main assets within the energy supply process are substations, which are critical infrastructures for the electricity grid to foster the development of our society. Ingeteam is currently developing the DIGITAS project, co-funded by the Basque Government and the European Union using FEDER funds through the Hazitek programme. The main goal of this project is to develop a fully digitised substation automation solution ready for operations in which data access allows for services in addition to automatic plant operations to be generated. A digital substation is one in which most of the data related to the primary process (measurements from sensors, digital inputs, etc.) are instantly digitised at the point where it is collected. From then on, this data is exchanged between the devices at the substation and the different system operators over the different communications networks, normally via Ethernet connection. Inside the substation, digitisation also simplifies the installation, as it rules out the need for a large part of the physical cables that exist in a conventional substation. Ingeteam is developing new functions in protection and control equipment, in substation control units (SCU) and in local HMIs. It is also creating remote configuration, monitoring and access tools for easier maintenance. One of its main goals is for the equipment configuration process deployed to be as automatic as possible in order to reduce human error and speed up the deployment processes to spend less man-hours on the engineering and commissioning stages. The solution uses different international standards that make interoperability inside the substation and to the exterior possible, considering the cybersecurity needs of systems with remote access. Ingeteam has supplied over 100,000 items of protection and control equipment for substations.

For Ingeteam, 2020 has been the year in which the company has strengthened its renewables business in the United Kingdom, winning contracts that have allowed it to double its maintained power in as little as a year, moving up to 650 MW.  Specifically, and by technologies, Ingeteam is providing O&M services for 380MW of installed capacity in the wind sector and 270MW in the PV sector in the United Kingdom. This maintained power is equivalent to the annual energy consumption of 442,867 households. This strong growth has led the company to double its staff in the United Kingdom and it has also recently opened new offices in Glasgow, where one hundred employees are now working.   Since its arrival in the United Kingdom in 2015, the company has strengthened its position in the O&M sector, to become a trusted option for the maintenance of renewable energy plants in this country. Ingeteam currently has a 2% market share in the British market. Ingeteam has strengthened its international positioning in the Operation & Maintenance sector and it´s leadership in Europe. On a global level,has increased its maintained power in relation to 2019 by 4 GW, a figure which places its global portfolio at 16 GW. By sectors, the maintained power in the wind power sector is 9.2 GW and in the PV sector, the figure has grown until 7.5 GW. In addition, Ingeteam has experienced significant development in the market in biomass plants, where it currently maintains a total of 60 MW. This week, Ingeteam has been awarded a contract for the construction of a 5 MW energy storage solution based on supercapacitors, a pioneering solution in the United Kingdom. This equipment will make it possible for the National Grid, the electricity system operator in the UK (equivalent to the Spanish REE) to get accurate real-time localized information on inertia. These measurements will then be used to make the necessary decisions with regard to the sizing and location of any auxiliary systems required to maintain the stability of the energy system. As more renewables come onto the grid and as conventional power stations close, there is a growing need to find new ways of providing inertia. This project will make it possible to do so in a way that adapts to the actual requirements of the grid. Another key highlight is that Ingeteam is to supply one of the largest battery storage systems in the world to Scottish Power Renewables, Iberdrola's subsidiary in the United Kingdom. The project will act as a back-up to the largest onshore wind farm in the United Kingdom, at Whitelee, near Glasgow, and will have a storage capacity of 50 million watt hour, equivalent to the average consumption of 150,000 households/hour.

Ingeteam has passed the 2 GW (2,000 MW) mark for solar power supplied as PV inverters for the Australian market. This figure was achieved thanks to the 753 MW awarded to the company in 2020 in eight photovoltaic projects in which its Inverter Stations have been or are being installed, as well as other Ingeteam products and services. Specifically, the total solar power awarded to Ingeteam in Australia already amounts to 2,096 MW. An important milestone for the company that is strengthened with the arrival to the Australian market of Ingeteam Service, the company’s operation and maintenance division. As a market leader in the supply of O&M services for energy generation plants, Ingeteam Service has landed in Australia with a first contract to provide O&M services to two solar PV power plants with power ratings of 85 MW and 75 MW, that were commissioned in December 2017. Juan Miguel Gutiérrez, the director of Ingeteam Australia Pty Ltd., stated that the 2 GW of power "is a nice, round number, but the important thing is that it reaffirms the confidence that our customers are placing in our solutions, in a market in which the technical requirements demanded by the power companies and grid operator are probably the toughest in the world". The figure achieved by Ingeteam in Australia has secured the company's position in the country, where it has been present since 2013 and currently boasts the second largest market share in the PV inverter manufacturer ranking. Juan Miguel Gutiérrez also added that "our customers highly value the fact that Ingeteam is able to offer a complete package of products and services, which not only includes the PV inverters and transformer substations with all the low and medium voltage equipment, but also the power plant controller (PPC) system, the SCADA, the equipment commissioning work and the operation and maintenance service".

Ingeteam has undertaken the programming of the INGESYS IC2 control equipment for the correct functioning of the system based on the client's specifications. The BTMS is responsible for controlling the temperature of the train's batteries, activating the cooling circuit pump together with the cooling and heating systems depending on the needs of the system at any given moment and based on the setpoint received from the TCMS via the main CAN communications bus. Another point worthy of mention is that following the completion of the commissioning the client has successfully completed the EMC certification of the entire system which is required for its subsequent installation on the train.

She is set to be delivered in 2022. The name “Green Jade” symbolises Taiwan’s renowned Yushan, the Jade Mountain. At a dizzying height of 3,952 m above sea level, Jade Mountain is the highest peak in East Asia and gives Taiwan one of the highest elevations of any island in the world. Additionally, the name ‘Green Jade’ reflects this trail-blazing vessel’s contribution to reducing emissions, and its role in bringing clean, green energy to Taiwan’s residents. By choosing such an auspicious name, CDWE wants to highlight the ambitions to develop the offshore wind industry and to successfully ‘scale the summit’ together. This exceptional vessel highlights CDWE’s ambitions to further support development of the offshore wind industry in Taiwan and the wider Asia Pacific region. Green Jade will feature a high-tech, 4000-tonne capacity crane and DP3 capability. The vessel’s deck space has been maximised, enabling this unique asset to transport a multitude of the heaviest monopiles, jackets, wind turbine components and structures in a single shipment. With this exceptional combination of high load and lifting capacity, ‘Green Jade’ can transport and install the next generation of foundations and giant multi-megawatt wind turbines in the most cost-effective way. At 216.5 metres long, ‘Green Jade’ can comfortably accommodate a crew of up to 160 people. INGETEAM will coordinate and assure the correct design and integration of all electrical systems during the full project, from the early stages of the basic engineering to the detailed electrical engineering, including cabling commissioning and sea trials.
