    Green hydrogen as a key element of the future power supply

    To decarbonize carbon-intensive industries, green hydrogen-produced through renewable energy-powered water electrolysis—offers a promising solution. Helton Bezerra, expert on green hydrogen at MR, explains why this green molecule could play a major role in powering our sustainable future. Starting with the basics, he explains what hydrogen and green hydrogen are and their various applications in decarbonizing industries. In their conversation, Helton Bezerra and host Christian Schaider discuss recent advancements in scaling electrolysers and standardization, as well as the challenges that remain.

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

    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.

    No energy transition without regulating distribution grids: How more efficiency can be achieved

    Grid planners and operators face a major task in the coming years: electricity grids need to be strengthened and expanded in order to be prepared for the future. This is because the regulation of distribution grids plays a key role worldwide in the efficient and sustainable use of energy and the reliable supply of energy. In this episode, Franco Pizzutto, Business Development Manager for voltage regulating distribution transformers at MR, shares with Christian Schaider his extensive knowledge of technological advances and strategic approaches that can be used to optimize distribution grid management.

    How insulating liquids help to read the condition of your transformer

    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.
