Sustainable Transformer Project
Sustainable Transformer Project
Impact:
The factory tests of a transformer of conventional design (with modifications taking into account the lowest possible economic impact) with vegetable oil have been carried out, obtaining positive results and validating its use.
Period:
This project is in progress. It started on November 2015 and is scheduled for completion in July 2017.
Benefits for the electricity system:
The use of a sustainable transformer offers a number of advantages, mainly due to its biodegradability and low flash point.
For each transformer that benefits from the results of the project, it translates into a lower cost in waste management, eliminating constructive needs in new facilities such as waterproofing of trenches and fires walls and reduction of fire risk premiums and a reduction of fines for dumping in the event of an incident.
