Goals and challenges at the beginning of the power system development at the end of the 19th century
The goals were:
• large-scale generations and
• transmission of electricity to the consumers .
The challenges were:
• conceptually sound project,
• technically feasible and
• economically practical.

• In the 1896 - It was with Tesla's patents that George Westinghouse won the contract to construct the generators at Niagara Falls (ten 5,000 hp AC generators). The AC system and transformers allowed for long-distance transmission of power, which a DC system could not achieve. The current at 10,000volts was then transmitted through bare copper cable (on thousands of insulated wooden poles) to Buffalo, New York, 26 miles away.
• In these successful first of a kind project, we can clearly recognised:
Invention, Entrepreneur, Industry, Investor.
• In the 1985 - the first AC electric power system in Croatia and one of first multiphase AC systems in the world. That time Croatia was a part of Austro-Hungarian Empire.
• HPP Jaruga 1 (42 Hz, 2x550 kW). The transmission line from the HPP to the City of Šibenik (11.5 km) to the municipal distribution grid 3,000/110V included six transforming stations.
• The system supplied 340 street lights and some electrified houses in the town.
Two successful projects

... 125 years later
• Electricity has become a basic need in
our lives. We have become completely
dependent on electricity
• Electricity consumption is constantly
growing. Requirements for electricity
supply become very high: reliability,
security, affordability, sustainability, ...
• The pressure on the environment has
become unsustainably high
• Paris Agreement temperature goal
European Energy Transition
• The goal has been set and it is very
ambitious, to be climate neutral by 2050
• The challenges:
• Not only technical and economical, but also environmental, social, political, legal..
• No unique solutions
• The paths to the goal may be different.
