COP28 in Dubai saw a global commitment to double energy efficiency and triple renewable energy by 2030. Major challenges remain in achieving carbon neutrality, particularly the integration of variable renewable energy sources into electricity grids. The International Energy Agency (IEA) has highlighted the need for solar panels and electric vehicles. Voltage-regulating distribution transformers are emerging as a key solution for managing load fluctuations and maintaining voltage levels within an acceptable range. Transformers equipped with on-load tap changers (OLTCs) also enable real-time regulation and facilitate the integration of distributed energy resources. Case studies show that their implementation can improve performance while reducing operating costs. Power quality solutions are essential to prevent distortion and optimise reactive current management, thereby strengthening grid reliability as renewable energy integration increases.
