WAMSTER synchrophasor network of 20 devices installed in UAE
As a part of the measurement campaign by our Belgian client Tractebel Engineering, twenty STER PMU devices were successfully installed in United Arab Emirates.
Aim of the project is to collect synchronized measurements which will allow Tractebel to create a reactive power study and distribution load modeling for the UAE Abu Dhabi Transmission & Despatch Company (TRANSCO) and Abu Dhabi Water and Electricity Authority (ADWEA), with the goal of development of a dynamic reactive compensation system.
20 PMU devices were successfully installed at several locations around UAE, including the Abu Dhabi Critical National Infrastructure Area:
- Abu Dhabi area: island and mainland (11 kV),
- Al-Ain area (33 kV),
- Central area (220 kV),
- Critical National Infrastructure Area (220 kV).
