With #fossilfuels still accounting for 81% of energy production in 2023 the goal of a decarbonized future still seems a long way off. Although several countries have made solid progress in developing renewable energy infrastructure the sad reality is carbon-intensive fuels are still dominating global energy production. China remains the largest consumer of coal, accounting for 56% of the world’s total consumption (yes, that's right, over HALF of total global coal consumption) and in 2023, India’s coal consumption exceeded the combined total of Europe and North America for the first time and growing fast! #energyinfrastructure #climatechange #gridoptimization #smartgrid #batterystorage #energyefficiency #smartbuildings #iot #ev #energytransition #energynews #ElectricGrid https://lnkd.in/grB7KCPg

🚨 Offshore Wind's Achilles Heel: The True Cost of Cable Failures 🌊💨 Digging into my background on the electrical side, recent studies reveal a startling reality for the offshore wind industry. 📊 University of Strathclyde (2019) findings: • Power cable failure rate: 0.003 failures/km/year in European wind farms • For a 100km cable network: 30% chance of failure each year! • Downtime: 40 days (inter-array cables), 60 days (export cables) • Financial impact:   - Inter-array cable damage: $1.8M to $12M   - Export cable damage: $10M to $30M 💸 These failures significantly increase the Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) due to repair costs and lost generation. 🔍 Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult breakdown of failure causes: • 46% - Installation damage • 31% - Manufacturing defects • 15% - Cable design issues • 8% - External effects post-installation These statistics highlight the urgent need for innovative monitoring solutions in the offshore wind sector. Advanced subsea technology can help with the "Underwater Internet of Things (IoT)": ✅ Detect potential failures early ✅ Reduce downtime and repair costs ✅ Enhance asset reliability and lifespan ✅ Improve project insurability Imagine cutting a 60-day export cable repair to 30 days, or reducing a $30M loss to $15M. That's the power of proactive monitoring and early detection! Ready to safeguard your offshore wind investments and slash potential losses? Let's discuss how cutting-edge subsea technology from Aquatec can protect your cables and improve project Final Investment Decisions (FIDs)! 💡 #OffshoreWind #CableReliability #SubseaTechnology #RenewableEnergy #LCOE #UnderwaterIoT #Aquatec #cSolutions

I know I'm getting a bit "Soap-boxy" on this one but the reality is emerging economies prioritize energy access over #emissions reduction. The deployment of renewables in these economies is not offsetting carbon-intensive generation (#coal) it is merely meeting new demand. If the game is Emissions reduction, developed economies around the world need to step up and create scalable business models that will support meaningful load reduction/management so that net new #renewables (+ Storage) offset coal #generation rather than supporting it. #energy #VPP #gridoptimization #smartgrid #batterystorage #virtualpowerplants #energyefficiency #smartbuildings #iot #ev https://lnkd.in/gSPzY5_f

Cable monitoring systems are no longer a “good to have” solution.

#MondayMotivation - 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗙𝗼𝗴: 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱 We have all had those Mondays where energy feels low, and the to-do list seems endless, right? It’s tempting to push things off to tomorrow, but as I reminded myself today: “𝗗𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝗶𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗶𝘅 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗱𝗼 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆. 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀!” At iPLON, we know the importance of structure—whether it’s monitoring renewable energy systems in real-time or optimizing operations through digital solutions. Even when the day feels challenging, taking one small step forward can keep momentum going. So, if today feels overwhelming, take a moment, focus on that one thing you can accomplish now, and trust that even small progress matters. That was to power start your week, and to power up your renewables, 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘂𝘀: 📢 Follow us: https://bit.ly/iPLONINDIA 📧 Email: bd@iplon.in 📞 Call us: 9991836695 📋 Share your requirements: https://lnkd.in/gQJQm7WR 𝗶𝗣𝗟𝗢𝗡: 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗥𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀, 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗦𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝘁 𝗮 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲. #MondayMotivation #EnergyInnovation #SmartSolutions #Sustainability #iPLONIndia #IoTMonitoring #SCADA #PPC
