CTC Global, a leading US corporation, possesses cutting-edge ACCC®️ (Aluminium Conductor Composite Core) technology that has revolutionized the power transmission and distribution sector. With its exceptional strength surpassing that of steel while weighing only 70% as much, ACCC®️ conductor has become instrumental in enhancing power transfer capacities of transmission and distribution lines. This advanced conductor leverages aerospace technology and materials science to develop a remarkably lightweight yet highly robust core capable of accommodating approximately 25% more conductive aluminum, all without incurring any penalties in terms of weight or diameter.
By deploying ACCC®️ conductors, substantial improvements in efficiency are achieved, resulting in a remarkable reduction in line losses of up to 40% and an increase in capacity of up to two times, compared to traditional all-aluminum or steel-reinforced conductors. Furthermore, ACCC®️ Conductor demonstrates superior performance in terms of heat dissipation, ensuring cooler and more efficient operation than any other conductor of equivalent size and weight. As a consequence, line losses are minimized under all operating conditions, freeing up valuable generation capacity resources to meet escalating energy demands while concurrently mitigating emissions.
Presently, the deployment of ACCC®️ Conductor has resulted in substantial annual savings of approximately 10,400,577 megawatt-hours (MWh), a considerable accomplishment. Considering the international average of 0.925 pounds of CO2 emissions per kilowatt-hour (kWh), this translates into an impressive reduction of 4,365,033 metric tons of CO2 emissions annually. To put this into perspective, these emissions savings are equivalent to powering 970,656 households in the United States or removing 948,920 cars from the roads. Additionally, if the power lines were previously reliant on thermal power plants, this reduction in emissions would also lead to an estimated preservation of 124 billion gallons of water, an amount comparable to filling 190,000 Olympic-size swimming pools. This estimation is derived from the fact that the average thermal power plant consumes approximately 12,000 gallons of water per MWh generated. Collectively, these achievements signify that the implementation of ACCC®️ Conductor has cumulatively curbed CO2 emissions by an impressive 22,966,850 metric tons, making a substantial contribution towards sustainability and environmental preservation.
