E.ON Signs Long-Term Deal to Deliver 29,000 Transformers for German Grid Overhaul

 

E.ON has launched a large-scale procurement initiative worth over $6.5 billion USD to strengthen Germany’s power grid—placing particular emphasis on expanding and upgrading the country's transformer capacity. The contracts secure the supply of nearly 29,000 distribution and power transformers, forming the backbone of a modern, resilient, and sustainable electricity network.

Signed with German and European manufacturers, the long-term agreements also cover more than 100,000 kilometers of medium- and low-voltage cables, 10,000+ digital local network stations, and over 500 switchgear systems for substations. These components are critical for connecting renewable energy sources, electric vehicles, heat pumps, and battery storage systems to the grid.

Thomas König, Chief Operating Officer Networks at E.ON, said: “Massive investments and consistent standardization and digitization are our central contribution as a grid operator to advance the energy transition in Germany and make it economical.”

Transformers are at the core of this strategy, enabling greater efficiency, faster deployment, and future-ready grid capacity. By standardizing technical specifications, E.ON aims to reduce production complexity, cut costs, and accelerate grid rollout.

Time Synchronization Monitoring System for TSN Networks in the Energy Sector

Bitstream’s Time Synchronization Monitoring System for TSN Networks in the Energy Sector is centered around the advanced QUAZAR-700 hardware and complemented by the QuazarNET software suite. This cohesive solution delivers high-precision time and frequency monitoring tailored for Packet Time Sensitive Networking.

Designed for PRP (Parallel Redundancy Protocol) networks using PTP (Precision Time Protocol, IEEE 1588v2) at 10 Gbps, the solution ensures accurate and uninterrupted synchronization across critical infrastructure. The QUAZAR-700 functions as both a GNSS-synchronized time server and a monitoring probe. With a timing accuracy of under 15 ns (under clear sky conditions), it collects and processes essential metrics such as Time Error (TE), Time Interval Error (TIE), Maximum Time Interval Error (MTIE), Time Deviation (TDEV), and detailed PTP dataset logs.

Bitstream Demo Monitoring

 

Equipped with high-stability oscillator options (OCXO/DOCXO/RUBID), the device is capable of detecting synchronization faults, packet delay variations, network jitter, jamming and spoofing attempts, and signal interruptions. Its internal memory allows for up to 72 hours of continuous data logging, displayed via an intuitive local interface or remotely through QuazarNET, which provides live visualization, alerts, and long-term performance trends.

The system is ideal for utilities, grid operators, and industrial automation environments where timing precision is not optional, but essential. It supports deeper visibility into network behavior, enabling proactive maintenance, better incident response, and compliance with emerging grid synchronization standards.

Long-life obstruction markers for overhead conductors, cables and towers

OBSTA HV Lite

 

 

OBSTA manufactures long-life obstruction markers for overhead conductors, cables, and towers for aviation safety, as per international aviation regulations (ICAO).

For high-voltage cables, OBSTA will present its new inductive red obstruction light during this event: the HV-Lite (LED type). This new conductor light is induction-powered. Compared to their historical "Balisor" (a cold neon discharge light with a capacitive antenna), this new model is very compact, lightweight, and easy to install. This night marker can be complemented by their warning spheres, available in either polyethylene or aluminium, for daytime marking. All these markers are maintenance-free.

For towers supporting cables, OBSTA’s solar-powered red (night only) or dual-color (white flashing for day, red for night) obstruction lighting systems, featuring their new IoT control with a 4G modem, allow for easy maintenance of the entire system installed on the tower (batteries, regulator, lights).

 

All OBSTA obstruction lights are now compatible with Night Vision Goggles (NVG), which are increasingly used by pilots, in compliance with aviation authorities such as the FAA, MOD (UK), OFAC, and many more.
