Press releases

ABB has delivered a state-of-the-art distribution solution to ensure Southeast Asia’s largest floating solar power plant can deliver reliable, clean energy to 50,000 Indonesian homes. The new 250-hectare floating solar power plant in the Cirata Reservoir in West Java, Indonesia, was recently inaugurated by the Indonesian President, Joko Widodo. It is one of a growing number of floating solar

Montenegrin electricity distribution system operator (DSO) CEDIS chose ABB as a reliable partner for the installation of a medium-voltage solution that improves the reliability and quality of the power supply to end users in Podgorica.

In 2021, ABB was awarded a bid by The Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to provide a complete power distribution solution to maintain safe and reliable energy supply for the High Energy Photon Source (HEPS) project in Beijing. As one of the key projects listed in the 13th Five-year Plan for national major scientific and technological infrastructure construction,

ABB’s all-in-one protection relay for advanced power generation and distribution applications, REX640, releases new hardware for increased flexibility with more interface options.

Designed to provide simplified yet optimal protection and control for basic power distribution applications, REX610 takes the next step in protecting people and processes.

The capability of REX640 to perform automatic high-speed transfers ensures fast recovery of electrical supply for critical loads, minimizes the impact on the manufacturing process – and saves money.

Packed with innovative simplicity, REX610 is designed to simplify protection and control as the power grid evolves.

As the power grid evolves, REX610 is designed to simplify protection and control of basic power distribution applications.

Capable of covering up to 20 REX640 relays, the new switchgear human-machine interface (SHMI) provides optimal visibility and reduces relay costs by up to 15 percent.

Introducing support for the remote communication protocol IEC 60870-5-104 reduces the number of components in the distribution network and the amount of engineering.
