The company claims that its Multilin DA controllers help utilities optimize voltage levels, reduce power losses and decrease outage duration.
The DA controllers, when deployed as part of a voltage and VAR control solution, provide utilities with the technologies to optimize grid efficiency through peak load shaving and reduced power losses, GE said.
GE Smart Substation business general manager Juan Macias said that the company continues to develop and invest in advanced technologies that enable its utility customers to realize real gains in operational efficiency and reliability.
"With the launch of our new platform of distribution automation controllers and our recent acquisition of FMC-Tech, we are able to provide distribution utilities with the key building blocks required to effectively manage critical distribution assets, ensuring improved grid efficiency and reliability," Macias said.
