In transmission & distribution applications
✓ Overhead lines, underground & underwater cables
Collaborative project with the NYPA to identify interruptions in an underwater cable between Long Island and mainland New York. Predict evolving faults and disturbances with as long a time horizon as possible.
Applying AI/ML techniques to historical data from various sources. Identifying small anomalies, deviations, and patterns to predict evolving faults and disturbances as far in advance as possible.
Initial cable faults on buried & underwater cables could be predicted
Eneryield IntelliView™ goes beyond the capabilities of conventional power grid analysis techniques and identified data correlations, indicators, and characteristics. The AI/ML techniques tailored to their needs, enable NYPA to achieve high confidence in predicting faults and identifying key operational drivers.
A system that can predict problems and identify causes could be invaluable in maintaining the resilience of the transmission system not only for NYPA but other utilities as well.

Together with ABB, we want to make our contribution to an increasingly electrified society with a higher reliance on an uninterrupted power supply. The goal is to: Reduce the number of interruptions in the power supply, enhance fault localization, isolation, and supply restoration processes. Minimize the duration of faults when they do occur.
67% of faults were accurately predicted one week prior to their occurrence with the reliability of a 91% avoidance of false alarms. Highlighted the need for improved networks and operational practices for transmission and distribution systems. Shown to improve reliability and save costs for distribution and transmission lines. ABB chose to proceed with a solution from Eneryield after several successful pilot projects.
