Austrian Powerlines going Digital with Neuron Overhead Line Sensors
Heimdall Power, a world leader in the monitoring of overhead power lines, today announced a groundbreaking project with Netz Niederรถsterreich (NNร) in Austria. This new deal marks the largest project in the companyโs history, building on recent successes with Great River Energy in the U.S. and Fagne in Norway.
Following a competitive tender process, Heimdall Power has been selected to provide 200 Neuron overhead line sensors to the Austrian DSO Netz Niederรถsterreich GmbH, with potential expansion to 270 sensors under the existing contract. This would make it the worldโs largest Dynamic Line Rating (DLR) project to date.
The ten-year framework agreement will see NNร utilizing Heimdall Powerโs advanced software and Neuron sensor units to enhance grid operations across Lower Austria, serving around a million customers on a daily basis.
Jรธrgen Festervoll, CEO of Heimdall Power, expressed his enthusiasm about the new venture, giving the following statement: โToday marks yet another milestone for Heimdall Power, announcing the biggest DLR-contract in the history of the company and perhaps in the world! Itโs been a thorough process with NNร leading up to this point, and we are now excited to announce it to the world and to get started.
โThe 10-year timeline for the contract is a first for Heimdall Power, and underlines the long term relationship we are building with our customers. We look forward to working closely with NNร over the next years, making sure they get the most out of our solutions both from existing and potential future use-cases.โ
