The world’s first ultra-high voltage flexible direct current (UHVDC) transmission project commenced construction on Monday.

The company marked a technology milestone for the introduction of a 66 kV class air-forced water-cooling transformers for nacelle offshore wind applications.

The project will generate about 6.09 billion kWh of electricity each year.

The project is a joint venture between Mingyang Smart Energy and BASF.

James Zhao will join Hitachi Energy’s Executive Team, bringing extensive electrification and industry expertise and deep knowledge of power grids in China.

The project envisions the construction of a 138 km HV transmission line to take power to South Sudan, the expansion of two substations and construction of one new one.

The project’s goal is to deliver clean energy from northeastern and northern Brazil to the central part of the country.
