We at Heimdall Power are proud to share that we have won a tender for a DLR pilot-project with the national grid company in Portugal, REN.
REN will instrument a 400kV line with Neurons from Heimdall Power, using the data provided by the Neurons to gain insight into the real-time actual capacity of the line in question. They will also utilize the sensor and software technologies from Heimdall Power for asset monitoring purposes, like vibration monitoring of the exposed spans.
