Defender Walls: The Backbone of Substation Physical Security
As energy consumption rises due to factors like population migration, the proliferation of data centers, and the surge in electric vehicles (EVs), the urgency to protect critical infrastructure has intensified. This heightened demand has led to long lead times for essential equipment, such as transformers, making it vital to safeguard these valuable assets.
What Municipalities Don’t Realize About Non-Revenue Water
Non-revenue water is known to be a major issue in the United States, with an estimated 6 billion gallons of treated water lost every single day. Many utilities understand that non-revenue water is a problem, and they are taking steps to address it.
Transforming Safety: The Role of TruFireWall in Modern Substation Design
As energy consumption surges due to population growth, the proliferation of data centers, and rising electric vehicle (EV) sales, the demand for new and upgraded power substations has become critical. This increased need has resulted in longer lead times for transformers and higher-cost projects, creating significant challenges for utility providers.
