ACCC News

• Since January 1st of this year, 31 ACCC
  Conductor Projects have been completed, 59 are
  currently active and 63 additional ACCC
  Conductor installations are scheduled to start
  within the next few months, in addition to over
  900 completed. 
• Why? Because the ACCC Conductor offers the
  ability to improve the efficiency, capacity,
  reliability and resilience of the electric power
  grid, worldwide, while saving time, money and the
  environment.

ACCC Conductor is Ideally Suited for Greenfield
Projects

• Designed initially to decrease thermal sag and
  increase line capacity, which offers obvious
  benefits on reconductoring projects, the ACCC
  Conductor is now being used for greenfield
  projects, worldwide.
• The benefits of ACCC Conductor have been put to
  use on several New Line projects. The ACCC
  Conductors greater strength and reduced thermal
  sag has enabled further spans between fewer
  and/or shorter structures (in some cases with
  smaller foundations), to reduce overall project
  costs and construction timeframes. The ACCC
  Conductors higher capacity also allows the use
  of smaller conductor sizes which can further
  reduce upfront capital costs.

ACCC Conductor Installation

• A good example of a New ACCC Installation was
  the Pengerang Project in Johor, Malaysia. In this
  case, Trenergy selected the ACCC Conductor as a
  275 kV tie line for the new Petronas Generation
  plant in Kota Tinggi. The terrain was very marshy
  and included several saltwater crossings. 
• The ACCC Conductors superior performance helped
  reduce upfront capital and maintenance costs and
  offered added capacity for future plant
  expansion. To learn more about several new
  ACCC Installations, please check out CTC
  Globals BLOG POSTS.

Cubico Upgrades Solem II Solar PV Tie Line with
ACCC Conductor

• Located in the State of Aguascalientes, Central
  Mexico, the Cubico Alten Solar PV facility is
  growing from 290 to 540 MW. To enable the added
  capacity to connect with CFEs grid, Cubico
  replaced the existing 795 kcmil Drake size ACSR
  conductor with 812 kcmil Grosbeak size ACCC
  Conductor. ACSS conductor was also considered but
  it did not meet the ampacity and sag
  requirements.
• With the support of Segal, Viakon, CTC Global and
  CFE, compliance with the Mexican Federal
  Electricity Agency, Centro Nacional de Control de
  Energía (CENACE) was achieved. 
• CTC Globals Master Installers Sergio Rojas and
  Ismael Dones provided installation support and
  PLP Mexico personnel offered hardware
  installation training.
