Under the contract, ABB will supply eight variable shunt reactors with a rating of 200 megavolts-ampere reactive (Mvar) and weighing about 260 metric tons.
When the network load varies with the season, the voltage levels will be regulated with the help of cost efficient solution provided by variable shunt reactors.
The company said its variable shunt reactors will also provide flexibility to meet future development and changes in the grid and load structure.
ABB Transformers business head Markus Heimbach said the new design of variable shunt reactors will help reduce losses and have a wider regulation range.
ABB is a provider of power and automation technologies that enable utility and industry customers to improve performance while lowering environmental impact.
