Brazil, São Paulo: The supplied equipment will serve as stand-by for the 4 transformers in the synchronous compensator system.
WEG products are recognized in the market for their safety, robust construction and durability they offer, in addition to standing out for their excellent competitiveness.
A proof of this is the long-lasting partnership with some customers, and in the case of Furnas Centrais Elétricas S.A., a power utility company that operates in the power transmission segment that continues to count on several equipment and solutions provided by WEG.
The present supply includes a large three-phase 350 MVA, 345 kV / 20 kV power transformer, scheduled for delivery in June 2021 to Ibiúna Substation located in the state of São Paulo.
The equipment will serve as stand-by for the 4 transformers in the synchronous compensator system, which has been in operation for over 30 years. Benefits of the supply include reduction in a timeframe for an eventual replacement or maintenance, as well as offering higher reliability to the energy transmission system.
