Reconductoring with High-Performance Conductors
Jason Huang is founder and CEO of TS Conductor, a U.S. manufacturer of next generation advanced conductors that enable utilities to increase capacity while reducing project costs and saving customers money. His career spans senior leadership positions at companies like CTC Global, BAE Systems, Owens Corning, and Solvay, as well as work with the National Institute of Standards and Technology and on critical defense aircraft projects.
Let’s be honest. Some grid operators are still under the impression that reconductoring with advanced conductors is expensive. The data tell a different story. In fact, the reality is the exact opposite; today’s advanced conductors yield net savings.
This is important to understand, because if grid operators overlook advanced conductors because they think they’re too expensive, they’re limiting their ability to address challenges that are only becoming more acute, especially when it comes to grid modernization and capacity expansion.
