EU-subsidie geeft GE’s ontwikkeling van ’s werelds eerste SF6-vrije vermogensschakelaar van 420 kV een impuls

February 13, 2020
  •  Het LIFE-programma van de EU erkent het potentieel van GE’s Green Gas for Grid (g3) om de uitstoot wereldwijd van broeikasgassen significant te beperken.
  • Het CO2-equivalent van de gasmassa in GE’s g³-hoogspanningsproducten is ruim 99% lager ten opzichte van SF6.
  • Een g³–geïsoleerde vermogensschakelaar voor gasgeïsoleerde hoogspanningsstations van 420 kV en 63 kA zal demonstreren dat de g³ technologie bij alle hoogspanningsniveaus in elektriciteitsnetten van Europa kan worden toegepast.
