A delegation from Arago Technology will be travelling to New Orleans to attend the IEEE Transmission Distribution Conference and Expo in New Orleans from 19th – 22nd April 2010. The team would be delighted to meet any delegates interested in learning more about Arago Technology’s Composite Cross Arm technology or consultancy services. For more information please contact us here. For more information about the Conference, visit the website here.
Arago Technology Limited announces the launch of their new website. The website forms the next step in the commercialisation process which aims to position Arago Technology as a leader in the field of novel electrically insulating structures.
Learn more about the technology, what services the company offer and meet the team behind the technology.
The Arago Technology team announce they are in the process of manufacturing a full scale L3 Composite Cross Arm which will be installed, later this year, on to a L3 tower at the National Grid Training Centre at Eakring.
The aim of this work is to develop the technology further by addressing some of the installation and maintenance considerations that will be introduced by the technology as well as optimising the design further.
The Arago Technology team have successfully secured £100k of funding from the UMIP Proof of Principle fund to enable to team to carry out a number of activities over the next 12 months.
The focus for the PoP funding is to enable the team to carry out a more detailed market research study in collaboration with the TSO’s. It will also enable the team to understand the potential this technology has across other parts of the industry and develop a clear vision through to product launch.
The funding will also assist in a series of long term environmental trials, planned for later this year, in collaboration with a number of TSO’s. Trails aim to take place at both coastal and high altitude locations, these are seen by the industry as the harshest of environments for any transmission line.
The Arago Technology team has secured a further tranche of funding from National Grid to maintain their aggressive development of the technology. Funding will enable a number of trials to take place include the installation of a full scale L3 Composite Cross Arm on an L3 tower at Eakring and develop a better understanding of the electrical and environmental performance of the technology.
