DISTRIBUTION TRANSFER CAPABILITY EXPANSION USING EXISTING UTILITY CORRIDORS
Airbornway’s dual-conductor configuration is designed to support incremental distribution capacity utility practices.
GROWING ELECTRICITY DEMAND
Electric distribution systems are experiencing growing demand driven by electrification and renewable energy integration.
Utilities must often increase transfer capability within existing corridors where building new infrastructure can be costly or disruptive.
Improving the use of existing infrastructure may help.
TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW
Airbornway has developed a patented conductor configuration that integrates two electrically independent conductors within a single cable assembly.
The design maintains controlled electrical separation while allowing parallel operation.
The innovation is architectural and aligns with conventional overhead utility installation practices.
DESIGNED FOR UTILITY INTEGRATION
No voltage-class changes.
No modification to protection schemes.
Installed and operated by the electric distribution company.
Compatible with conventional overhead construction methods.
CAPITAL PLANNING ALIGNMENT
The configuration is intended to integrate with distribution infrastructure upgrades already planned by electric utilities.
Reconductoring projects, corridor capacity upgrades, or reliability-driven Replacements where utilities are evaluating options to increase transfer capability within existing rights-of-way.
CABLE CROSS SECTION
Two electrically independent conductors integrated within a single assembly while maintaining controlled separation.
SPAN INSTALLATION
The configuration installs within a single span using conventional overhead construction practices.
CORRIDOR COMPARISON
The Airbornway configuration is designed to increase transfer capability within existing utility corridors.
POLE LOADING COMPARISON
Integrating two conductive paths within one assembly may support incremental capacity expansion while limiting additional structural loading.
RECONDUCTORING COMPARISON
Traditional reconductoring increases capacity by replacing an existing conductor with a larger single conductor. Airbornway’s configuration is designed to provide incremental capacity expansion through an integrated dual-conductor assembly within the existing corridor.
UPGRADE PATHWAY
The Airbornway configuration may allow utilities to increase transfer capability within existing corridors while preserving future infrastructure flexibility.
INFRASTRUCTURE BENEFITS
- Supports increased transfer capability within existing distribution corridors
- Enables capacity upgrades without expanding corridor footprint
- Uses existing infrastructure to help reduce community, environmental, and long-term infrastructure costs
- Aligns with conventional overhead installation and operating
STRUCTURED VALIDATION PATHWAY
A staged evaluation process supporting engineering validation, pilot installation, and utility review prior to broader deployment.
UTILITY DEPLOYMENT FRAMEWORK
Any deployment would occur following utility engineering review and through existing utility planning and capital investment processes.
COMPANY BACKGROUND
