Permitting delays. Construction backlogs. Aging lines under pressure. If you still rely on traditional conductor technology, you’re losing time, money and megawatts.
There’s a faster way to deliver more capacity –
without rebuilding your system from scratch.
Double Capacity
Enables rapid reconductoring on existing towers, doubling capacity in 6-24 months.
Supports energy growth
Seamlessly integrates rapidly rising loads—from data centers to new energy production.
The ACCC® Conductor doesn’t just improve capacity—it transforms what’s possible. Delivering rapid, cost-effective upgrades with unmatched reliability, so you meet today’s demand without compromise or delay.
Lowers sag to prevent outages and enable
faster service restoration
Lowers line losses by up to 40%, reducing costs
and GHG/ CO2 emissions.
Durable under severe weather, ensuring
dependable service.
Cuts congestion costs, delivering cleaner,
more affordable energy.
In the scenarios below—ACCC® Conductor vs. ACSR at 1,000 amps and ACCC® Conductor vs. ACSS at 1,600 amps—ACCC® Conductors reduce line losses enough to free up 2-8 MW of generation capacity. At $1M per MW, that’s millions in recovered value—delivering more grid capacity at a lower lifecycle cost.
| Peak Amps | Temperature at peak amps (C°) | Load Factor | MVA | Annual Line Losses (MWh) | Generation Capacity to Supply Losses (MW) | Value of Reduction at $1 million/MW | Value of Reduced Generation per lineal conductor (meter) | (foot) | |
