Drakenstein Municipality's Digital Transformation: ETAP ADMS for Efficient Electrical Network

Drakenstein is a municipality in the western Cape province of West Africa supporting the electrical needs of 5 towns and close to 300,000 people. With limited visibility for our existing electrical network, the decision was made to upgrade the legacy equipment. With this, our vision is to embark on a digital journey to improve network efficiencies, reduce downtime, time of outages, and inadvertent tripping. In this case study, the phased approach to this transformation will be discussed, and the use of ETAP applications, analysis modules and the implementation of a digital twin to design and model the new electrical network. The presentation covers the use of ETAP load flow, short circuit, protection and relay coordination studies and subsequent hardware design planning and visualization using ETAP PSMS.

Red Sea Project - How to Optimize Renewable Plant Control & Power Systems with ETAP for Vision 2030

This Red Sea Project is a groundbreaking endeavor in Saudi Arabia under the Saudi Vision 2030 economic development program. The project is powered by a fully renewable energy system, including large-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) system and a substantial 1.3 GWh energy storage system, effectively providing 100% clean energy to the development. As the Engineering, Procurement and Construction firm for this project, SEPCOIII has been involved with the design and construction of a wide range of permanent utility assets, including support facilities such as desalination plants, power generation facilities and distribution networks for water, electricity and natural gas. In this presentation, learn how SEPCOIII relied on ETAP's Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS) to assist with the technology challenges for the project’s distributed energy power system, and how the solution is being used to manage and supervise the power distribution system to achieve better optimizations and improve system stability.

Smart City ADMS: Case Study of Egypt’s New Administrative Capital

Cities of the future will soon account for 90% of the world’s population growth and 75% of its energy consumption. The pressure on critical resources will increase. The New Administrative Capital in Egypt launched one of the country’s most ambitious development projects to date, setting standards in smart city living is ADMS. ETAP ADMS will manage, control, visualize and optimize power distribution required to run critical smart services for city operators, citizens, workers, and visitors alike. Learn how ETAP ADMS is utilized to support long-term sustainable, efficient smart city services that will support a safer, more innovative, and more prosperous Egypt.
