Innovation Strategy
Our strategic lines frame our R&D&I roadmap for the coming years so that we can offer Innovative and Sustainable Solutions resulting from the application of disruptive technologies in the development of our new products.
We firmly believe that investment in R&D&I is essential for growth, sustainability, and maintaining a competitive leadership position in the market.
Our priorities are focused on developing actions aimed at achieving a power transmission and distribution network that efficiently, reliably, and sustainably integrates the new realities associated with the energy transition: digital technologies such as cybersecurity, asset management, data monitoring, or digital twins; the design and development of innovative equipment and product sustainability; as well as the development of other relevant specific electrical technologies, such as direct current, internal arc, or harmonic measurement.
News highlights
New EPD-certified products in our Measurement and Monitoring business
At Arteche, we’re strengthening our commitment to sustainability and environmental transparency by successfully passing new Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) audits.The certifications include:Inductive high-voltage transformers. The UT series is a range of inductive voltage transformers up to 550 kV. This series uses oil-impregnated paper insulation. These transformers offer high accuracy (up to 0.1%) that remains consistent throughout the device’s lifespan with maximum reliability.Combined high-voltage transformers. The KA series is a range of combined transformers up to 245 kV. This series uses oil-impregnated paper insulation with multiple shields for proper distribution of the electric field. These transformers offer high accuracy (up to 0.1%) that remains constant throughout the device’s lifespan with maximum reliability, as well as a wide range of primary currents from 1 to 5000 A and a short-circuit current of up to 120 kA/1s.Optical current transformers. Arteche’s optical current transformers are based on the Faraday effect, measuring the changes that occur in the polarization angle of light as it passes through a magnetic field. Optical current transformers offer excellent accuracy over a wide (virtually unlimited) range, greater safety (no risk of failure due to explosion), environmental protection (no SF6 or
