EPRI’s new program aims to strengthen grid resilience
The Electric Power Research Institute has launched a global initiative to prepare future grids by modernizing how the electricity-generating sector detects, anticipates, and responds to emerging risks and manages technological transformation. The nonprofit energy research and development organization intends for the initiative, called Rapid Adaptation of Grid Defense, Analytics, and Resilience (RADAR), to provide a scalable framework, advanced tools, and targeted training for strengthening grid resilience and reliability.

The power supplies for the neutral beam injection and radio-frequency heating systems in the Joint European Torus (JET) are described. The characteristics of the main power supplies are presented. Since JET will become active at a later stage, no components requiring regular maintenance could be installed in the Torus Hall or basement. Therefore, it was necessary to construct a special transmission line and isolation vessel (SF6 tower). Typical power supply pulses are described.
