Hitachi’s Innovative Power Transmission Technology Ensures Clean Energy for NY Homes

Making long-distance energy transfer a reality

Decarbonization goals require the government to work closely with the private sector to develop effective solutions for clean energy transmission. These public-private partnerships, such as the ambitious project in New York leveraging Hitachi’s high-voltage direct current (HVDC) technology, is essential if objectives at the state and local levels are to be achieved.

However, though emerging tools and technologies aim to reduce carbon emissions, the problem of electricity transmission has been a major obstacle.  The project in New York is setting the bar for public-private partnerships in the energy sector with Hitachi’s unique technology and is making long-distance energy transfer a reality.

Renewable energy transmission to power New York

The state of New York’s Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act has set a target to be powered by 70% renewable energy by 2030^ . Historically, the state has been reliant on traditional and dispatchable energy sources like gas and coal. But most renewable energy sources must be held in reserve until needed. Accessing renewable energy on demand requires a means of storing power for later use.

Initially, the challenge was to find a suitable renewable power reservoir that was well-positioned for the transfer of renewable energy to and from the state. As Quebec relies mostly on hydropower generation, its infrastructure and capacity provided renewable energy storage capabilities to its neighbor. Next, an environmentally responsible means of bringing clean hydropower from Quebec to New York City was facilitated by Hitachi’s HVDC technology.

As the technology powers the Champlain Hudson Power Express (CHPE) link between Quebec and New York City, it deploys long distances underground and underwater, to bypass legacy transmission bottlenecks and meet the growing demand for clean power. Using Hitachi’s HVDC Light technology, CHPE will transfer up to 1,250 megawatts of electricity, enough to power 1 million New York homes.

Hitachi’s HVDC for clean energy transmission

As a New York City mandate requiring the installation of electric appliances comes into force, demand for electricity in the city will grow. With HVDC Light’s ability to promote resource diversity to overall resource reliability, the CHPE system will be better equipped to meet the increase in electricity consumption.

HVDC Light further supports the state’s climate goals by maintaining a low environmental impact, and its converter stations likewise have a small carbon footprint. The CHPE project is expected to create 1,400 jobs from the construction phase, bringing $50 billion in economic benefits to New York state. The impact of the project is projected to be equal to removing 44% of passenger vehicles from the city. ^^

Hitachi’s work on the CHPE system reflects the company’s commitment to deploying technology to achieve social good by making it feasible to achieve critical sustainability goals.

Being both an electrical engineer and electronic musician is weird. I see the words "wave trap" and I think both about a device, used to protect power substations from power line communication high frequency carrier signals and a trap music subgenre.

“Man Is Located Who Saw Missing Papers,” North Bay Nugget. April 23, 1932. Page 1. ---- Royal Commission on Hydro is Adjourned For Period of Two Weeks ---- SAW PAPERS IN NEW YORK ---- Attempt Made by newspapers to Get Photostat Copies of Fyle --- Toronto, April 23 — (By Canadian Press)— The Toronto Globe today aid its staff correspondent at London, Ont., had located Kenneth McLeod, mentioned yesterday in the Royal Commission enquiry of Hydro, as one who knew the whereabouts of the "missing" John Aird Jr. fyle before it reappeared at the hearing Thursday. 

The newspaper quoted McLeod as saying he had seen the fyle in Buffalo and that he had been asked if any offers of money had been made for it. He declined to say who had possession of the fyle when he saw it last but named a lawyer "Stein" as one who was said to have held it in New York. He said he had also seen it in Toronto.

Commission Adjourns Toronto, April 23 - (By Canadian Tress) -The Royal Commission investigating certain transactions of the Ontario Hydro Power Commission and the payment of $425,000 lo John Aird Jr. by the Beauharnois Power Corporation, has concluded its labors for two weeks. An adjournment was made last night until May 9, owing to pressure of business on Supreme Court Judges at present. Five of them are ill, and Mr Justice J. K. Orde, Commissioner, declared he was unable to continue until that date. 

Meanwhile, counsel concerned are busy digesting a mass of documentary and oral evidence surrounding the various phases of the investigation. The $125,000 payment, the payment of $50,000 to Mr. Aird by the Hydro for his services in connection with Madawaska and the purchase of the Dominion Power and Transmission Company of Hamilton for $22,000,000 by Hydro are being investigated. 

At yesterday’s long session, G. Howard Ferguson, former premier of Ontario, and Canadian High Commissioner to London, concluded his evidence on the stand with a reiterated denial that any of the $125,000 had reached the coffers of the Conservative party and refused to even hazard a guess as to the Identity of the person who would have collected.

Capacitor start capacitor run (CSCR) motors

Capacitor start capacitor run (CSCR) motors are a type of single-phase induction motor used in applications where high starting torque and high efficiency are required. They are commonly found in appliances like air conditioners, refrigerators, and washing machines, as well as in industrial equipment and tools.

These motors have two capacitors: a starting capacitor and a running capacitor. During the starting phase, both capacitors are connected in series with the start winding, providing a higher starting torque compared to a split-phase motor. Once the motor reaches a certain speed, the starting capacitor is disconnected, leaving only the running capacitor in the circuit. The running capacitor improves the power factor and efficiency of the motor during normal operation.

CSCR motors offer several advantages, including:

High starting torque: The presence of the starting capacitor provides the motor with sufficient torque to overcome inertia and start rotating.

High efficiency: By using a running capacitor, the power factor of the motor is improved, resulting in better efficiency and reduced power consumption.

Reliable performance: CSCR motors are known for their reliability and durability, making them suitable for various applications.

Overall, CSCR motors are a popular choice in situations where high starting torque and efficiency are required, making them well-suited for both residential and industrial applications.
