GreenSwitch Project

⚡The automation of the secondary substations in #Carinthia makes good progress. #KNG-Kärnten Netz has already put ten stations into operation. Another new #automated station was delivered to the location of Krottendorf this week and is now being connected to the grid as well as to the control center. This helps to increase the #observability of the grid and the security of supply. #cinea #cefenergy #smartgrids  

💡 Elektro Gorenjska, d.d. is upgrading 50 transformer stations as part of the #GreenSwitch project. So far, they have built transformer stations Visoko and Cvelfar and completed the construction of a 20 kV cable line with a cable loop between Sveti Andrej and Bodoveljska Grapa. All these locations were affected by the floods last August. 👏The project to build a new replacement transformer station, Jeprca (in the photo), is also in its final phase.

Project partners met in Slovenia at Elektro Celje's premises. They reviewed the technical and financial progress of implementing project activities. The crucial topics of the discussion were the challenges of public procurements and rising costs, as well as discussing strategies to mitigate those risks. The following steps were defined, and the timeline for the first official report to the granting authority was updated. #cinea #cefenergy #smartgrids

Our team was at the Smart Grid’24 #PCI SUMMIT, sharing experiences with colleagues implementing other #smartgrid PCIs. Thomas Anvidalfarei from #KNG participated in the panel on cross-border cooperation in smart grids. He talked about the reasons for connecting seven partners from three countries to prepare this project and start implementing it. Congratulations to the Danube InGrid HU/SK Project project for the event organisation. 👉 Find out more: https://lnkd.in/eTDfR-pv #cinea #cefeneergy

As part of the project, 50 transformer stations are being modernised on the Elektro Gorenjska, d.d. network. So far, the Visoko and Cvelfar transformer stations have been newly built, and a 20-kilovolt cable line with a cable loop between Sveti Andrej and Bodoveljska Grapa has been constructed. The station Visoko in Poljanska Dolina has a wooden panelled facade that positions the building in harmony with the natural environment of Poljanska dolina and Tavčarjev dvorec in Visoko. #cinea #cefenergy #smartgrids #greenenergytransition

🌐 Visit us at booth S203 at the CIGRE Session 2024 Global Technical Exhibition. We will be glad to share how we will: ✔enable the integration of an increasing amount of dispersed renewable energy sources and new loads; ✔ improve observability of the distribution network; ✔improve supply quality; ✔optimise the use of the infrastructure in the transmission and distribution networks in Austria, Croatia, and Slovenia. #cinea #cefenergy #smartgrids

⚡ Successful factory acceptance tests of the two shunt reactors. ⚡ ✅ After a visual inspection and a series of measurements and tests, HEP ODS engineers confirmed that the equipment met the requirements requested in the technical specification. 🚚 Shunt reactors will be delivered to Croatia in the coming days, and installation and commissioning are expected during August. 👏 In the meantime, HEP ODS has already completed the construction work and prepared the foundations for installing the equipment. #cinea #cefenergy #smartgrids

👏 Elektro Gorenjska, d.d. completed the reconstruction of the protection and control systems of the 20 kV part of the switchyard in substation #Primskovo. In addition to expanding the 20-kV switchyard and replacing secondary equipment, a new 110-kV GIS switchyard is being built. A 110 kV transformer will also be installed on the site, enabling the supply of heavy-duty #charging stations in Kranj. #cinea #cefenergy #smartgrids #evcharging

In Carinthia #KNG is working on the laying of the next kilometers of MV Cables. Excavation works at Kappel an der Drau have started. The plan is to exchange the overhead lines in this area. #cinea #cefenergy #pci #smartgrids

At a meeting in Kranj, Elektro Gorenjska, d.d. and #KNG-Kärnten Netz were familiarised with the condition of the Ljubelj tunnel, through which a cross-border medium voltage connection between Slovenia and Austria will be established. #cinea #cefenergy #pci #smartgrids
