Economics of Efficiency

Investments in the ACCC^® conductor will significantly reduce line losses and provide a higher Internal Rate of Return (IRR).

100km Recoductoring Analysis shows return of ACCC^® Drake conductor investment over ACSR Drake assuming present value of losses with 10% interest rate. Structure changing and replacing advantages were not taken into account.

An initial investment of US$ 2.1 mn in the technologically advanced ACCC^® conductor, generates US$9.78 mn of savings from the reduction in line losses over the first 15 year of service.
Present value of saving due to losses is US$11.88 mn present value and US$9.78 mn saving when initial cost subtracted over 15 years.
