The company will deliver two 300 MVAr Reactive Power Compensation systems which can be integrated into an existing substation, and the project will be completed in May 2012.
Alstom Grid’s Reactive Power Compensation system uses Mechanically Switched Capacitor banks in conjunction with a damping network, or MSCDN.
The company claims that it was the first manufacturer to provide the MSCDN technology to Germany’s 380kV transmission network.
Amprion is a network operator in Europe, with over 11,000 kms of extra-high voltage lines serving about 27 million people from Lower Saxony to the Alps.
