SP Energy Networks and Siemens are trialling new environmentally-friendly ‘clean-air’ technology at one of the former s electricity substations.
The project will pilot new switchgear technology developed by Siemens that, if successful and rolled out more widely, has the potential to reduce the volume of a greenhouse gas currently used in substations.
The first UK installation of an 8DJH 12 switchgear ring main unit means that the substation will be able to operate free of sulphur hexafluoride (SF6), which is commonly used as an insulator for electrical equipment in substations across the UK.
The trial will take place at an SP Energy Networks substation in MacLean Square in Glasgow.
