Solid state transformers course – e-lesson #5: Distributed generation and renewables sources part 1

Course: Solid state transformers course Intermediate level

Hosted by: Mario Salano / Intermediate level

Tuesday, 15 April 2025, 2:00 PM TZ Europe/Zagreb

The fifth lesson of the new course titled "Distributed generation" is scheduled for April 15th at 2 pm CET.

The topics of the first lesson are:

A distributed generation system becomes more efficient and reliable and provides a better configuration to absorb high penetration of renewable energy sources compared with the conventional grids.
Distributed energy sources interconnected with distribution network are continuously increasing thanks to the electricity market liberalisation and advanced developments in technologies of energy generation and distribution. Benefits that dispersed generation offers, public regulations and economic opportunities promote the spread of these units throughout the distribution network and the world.
Distribution network can be affected by stability and security issues. When a fault occurs, there is the possibility of continuously supplying it from different sources and from the generator connected to the faulted feeder.

The main topic of this session is the considerations of products that meet technical specifications overcoming business and social problems: concept applied to line frequency transformers.

As the course author – Mr. Salano – likes to put it: Technical specification is the mother of every design as it communicates the needs and requirements of the users in manageable technical data.

Attend and learn more.

Keywords: specification, requirements, design, data sheet, standards

About the author

Mario Salano

Mr. Salano’s expertise in the field of power transformers comes from a well established engineering skills acquired in “Salano transformers”, renowned Italian company that manufactured line-frequency power transformers for Italian power utilities. While inheriting the company from his father, Sig. Mario Salano used his vast engineering skills and he managed to maintain the company in rough period of seventies, adding new technologies and novel approaches to traditional values and products of “Salano transformers”.

His current interests include high-efficiency distribution transformers, the impact of nonlinear loads on power transformers, novel materials for transformer cores and also high-frequency power transformers for the use in conjunction with power electronics topologies.
