From aging to agile: Midlife Refurbishment strategies for operators

jeudi 31 juillet 2025 • Durée 24:29

ransformers that have been operating reliably for decades are increasingly coming into focus: Is it worth replacing them, or is there still potential in the existing technology? At a time when grids are being challenged by volatile feed-in and rising loads, life extension through Midlife Refurbishment is becoming increasingly important. Marc Foata, Asset Management Expert and Secretary of the CIGRÉ Study Committee A2, speaks with host Christian Schaider about the art of determining the right time for refurbishment—and why it’s not just about technology, but also about CO₂ balance sheets, regulatory requirements, and economic arguments. The episode discusses practical experiences, international differences in dealing with aging assets, and how condition assessment and health indices can help make well-founded decisions. Insights that demonstrate: Smart planning today can not only save costs but also ensure security of supply tomorrow.

Extend or end: What you can do to maximize the life of your transformers

lundi 17 juin 2024 • Durée 18:52

Aging assets in the grid are not uncommon - utilities and grid operators know this. However, replacements and upgrades are expensive and delivery times are long. In order to be able to use assets for as long as possible and extend their lifespan, suitable strategies are needed, which must be based on a clear picture of the condition of the fleet. Alexei Babizki, Head of Solution Innovation at MR, provides insight into the optimal condition assessment of transformers. In his conversation with Christian Schaider, he explains which solutions can be used to calculate and reduce risk of failure.

How insulating liquids help to read the condition of your transformer

lundi 29 janvier 2024 • Durée 31:45

Insulating liquids in power transformers provide insulation, cooling and protection. But they can do even more - namely provide information about the "state of health" of the transformer. This requires regular professional sampling and analysis of oil samples. After all, the more regular the testing, the more accurately trends can be identified and problems solved at an early stage. Oliver Reetz is an expert for intelligent sensors at MR and knows what issues operators are dealing with in times of staff shortages and voltage fluctuations caused by renewable energies. In an interview with Christian Schaider, he talks about his experiences and how intelligent technologies can provide support.
