Energy Management

The project

ASH’s collaboration with PPA Energy came about due to our shared desire to utilise technological advances to reduce valuable energy and time lost in maintaining the UK’s ageing power network. The project concerned developing a fault detection system for high power networks that covered a very large area. The solution required both companies to harness their significant power management, energy harvesting and magnetics expertise to develop a robust and reliable solution to detect line faults.
