Smart grids are increasingly touted as a large part of the answer to combating climate change and fossil fuel reliance. By endowing the electrical distribution network with the flexibility to adapt to new patterns of 'green' usage and the variability of generation capacity from renewable sources such as wind, wave and solar, engineers hope to reduce wastage and improve reliability.

“Whether its 2 or 2000 reclosers, RMS Electric / NOJA Power work hard to ensure the best technical solutions are delivered to our customers and their requirements are achieved to complete satisfaction. The successful long term relationship of RMS and AMPLA, is one example of the many successful projects in Brazil” says Bruno Kimura from RMS Electric.

The 12 Australian Export Award winners are impressive examples of companies that have achieved sustainable export growth through innovation and good management.

Due to the nature of the radio network and the topology of the islands of Fiji, FEA has to overcome black spots in this communications infrastructure to remote control remotely installed NOJA Power reclosers. As a result a recent trial has been undertaken to install GSM modems in several devices to prove this form of Scada and remote control.

The installation has eliminated frequent and lengthy power outages from affecting the entire network.Conditions are now reduced to short outages in isolated areas of the network allowing the mine to operate efficiently with minimum interruptions.
