Dynamic Line Ratings A Discussion with LineVision and AES

Описание: Tech Talks Series – November 8, 2023
Dynamic Line Ratings (DLR) are quickly becoming one of the most important Grid Enhancing Technologies (GETs) to unlock hidden capacity on the U.S. transmission system. In this WIRES Tech Talk, experts from LineVision and AES explain how DLR works, why it’s critical for clean energy integration and electrification, and what utilities must consider when deploying it.

The session covers:
How DLR increases grid capacity and resilience
Real-world deployment with AES, the largest DLR project in the U.S.
Use cases from data centers to renewable integration
Safety, reliability, and regulatory drivers including FERC Order 881
What comes next for GETs and the digital grid
Stay ahead of the energy transition with insights from two leaders at the forefront of modernizing transmission.
