Resin Systems a part of Circuit of the Future
The “Circuit of the Future” was featured in the NY Times on-line edition on October 16, 2007.
Southern California Edison (SCE), the largest electric utility in California, designed and installed this circuit using industry leading technology to give customers surer electricity service, fewer outages with faster service restoration and lower future costs than would otherwise occur.
RStandard composite utility poles were among the several advanced technologies used in this pioneering project, which recently began delivering power to Southern California EdisonÂ’s customers.
“We selected the Resin Systems product because it is lighter and therefore can be installed much faster, reducing customer outage time,” said James A. Kelly, SCE vice president for engineering. “And the fact that these innovative poles are built in segments means they are easier for our crews to move to work sites.”
Because RStandard utility polesÂ’ are made with advanced materials and a unique design, they provide benefits that old-style wooden utility poles cannot. Some of the benefits they provide are non-conductivity, lightweight modular construction, reduced labor and associated equipment costs, reduced maintenance costs and increased pole maneuverability and handling.
“We are pleased that our technology is an integral part of this next generation electricity circuit," said Paul Giannelia, president and chief executive officer of RS. ”As North America modernizes its electric infrastructure, we intend for RStandard utility poles to be an important part of that process.”

Jordan approves MOU to implement Jordan-Saudi Arabia electricity linkage
AMAN - The Jordanian Cabinet on has approved the memorandum of understanding to implement the electricity linkage project between Jordan and Saudi Arabia.
The memo will be signed between the National Electric Power Company(NEPCO) and the Saudi National Electricity Company.
The agreement will enable the two sides to initiate technical and financial feasibility studies for the project, which aims to enhance the stability and reliability of electricity networks in both countries.
The initial feasibility studies, which came as part of the comprehensive Arab electricity linkage issued by the Arab League in 2014, had shown the possibility of implementing the Jordanian-Saudi linkage.
