Installation of two synchronous condensers (SynCons)
Features
Electromechanical assembly of synchronous capacitor systems and their flywheels
Construction of two evacuation substations, one 110/15 kV in Coleraine (County Londonderry) and another 220/15 kV in Glencloosagh (County Kerry), as well as all necessary civil works
These infrastructures will provide short-circuit power compensation, inertia and reactive power, thus improving the efficiency of the electrical system
They aim to stabilise the electricity grid using state-of-the-art technologies in renewable energy integration
These projects are essential to achieving the goal of net zero emissions in the region
