01 Sep 2015 Evaluate

Crompton Greaves (CG) has bagged order for 365kV and 154kV Capacitive Voltage Transformers (CVT) from Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO), the largest electric utility of South Korea and responsible for 93% of Korea’s electricity generation. The company has won this order beating stiff international competition in a public bid based on its excellent track record in KEPCO, its ability to deliver technologically advanced solutions and the shortest delivery period of five months from the contract signing.

The transformers which are scheduled to be delivered by the end of this year are the latest in the trend of using Polymeric Insulated Products in the international market and the largest direct order from the Korean utility for polymeric products. Polymeric products have excellent qualities like flame resistance, light weight, easy handling, proven ageing resistance against degradation and deterioration. It provides high safety in seismic active areas as shock absorbers are not necessary in this case.

CG has been present in South East Asia for the past two decades and has previously partnered with KEPCO for the supply of Instrument Transformers (IT). The company has a presence in over 18 countries in the region with active representation in most countries. This order not only reinforces CG's relationship with KEPCO but also strengthens its position in the Korean market. Since its rapid development in the 1970s and 1980$, the Republic of Korea has become a major economic and industrial power in East Asia. This growth has been accompanied by a surge in the overall energy demand.
