Award Summary: Causes of electromagnetic noise in a wide range of frequencies, including the radio-frequency (RF) range used for Wi-Fi, cellphone, internet, radio and TV transmission. RF-disruption near power lines is currently a nuisance in many urban areas. Smart grids for more efficient energy usage, as well as roadway signalling and other city planning for the future rely on increasing rates of…
Award Summary: To date, testing of some materials such as silicone and EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubbers has been carried out, and some general findings exist, but it remains to be understood how the materials respond to weathering under their electrical load. In this project, a combination of surface-specific spectroscopy, microscopy, and macroscopic measurements…
ASAsoft™ Story 1.0 to 2.0 Ligh+weight Insulator aka Composite/Polymer Insulator Electricity drives our civilization, which is why there are huge questions as to where it will come from in the future. What is not going to change in the near future is the way that we distribute power. And the nature of that distribution system…
Victoria Tech Community Awards Listing Event Date: December 8, 2022 Victoria, BC Globally, transmission energy losses are approximately 8% of the total power transmitted – equating to over 13,000 TWh. Reducing these losses by even 0.1% with superior insulator technology could result in emission reductions of 4+ million tonnes of CO2e – equivalent to the CO2e emissions from 450 million gallons of gasoline. Our…
