Azerbaijan, Baku: On June 25, a block power transformer T2, manufactured by the Azerbaijan’s ATEF Group, was delivered to the Kyiv Pumped Storage Power Plant.

The equipment was supplied to Ukraine as part of the project “Rehabilitation of Hydroelectric Power Plants” for loans from the European Investment Bank and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development.

The weight of such a transformer without attachments is 116 T, and its capacity is 15 MVA.

A new block transformer will be installed during the reconstruction of Unit 2 of the Kyiv PSPP. The installation of the new block transformer is needed, as due to an increase in the capacity of units No. 6 and No. 4 after reconstruction, as well as the state of electrical equipment, the old one has exhausted its operational usefulness.

ATEF was founded in 1961 to manufacture distribution transformers under the name “Baku Transformer Company”. After privatization in 1997, the company was reformed and invested in the production of injection-moulded and dry-type transformers.

At present, ATEF unites 5 large factories for the production of electrical equipment with a nomenclature of more than 3.000 items, as well as wires of various configurations and building structures located in Azerbaijan.
