Views sought from LPAs on electricity substation design

by on May 13, 2015

The research and development team of Scottish and Southern Energy Power Distribution is running research aimed at planners and local authorities regarding a new type of electricity substation.

The team was recently awarded £2.8m from Ofgem’s Network Innovation Allowance to develop a brand new type of substation.

The aim of the project is to develop, deploy and test a wholly modular substation on the network that could be up to 70 per cent smaller than current substations.  The project is called Modular Approach to Substation Construction (MASC).

Take part in the survey.
