Tata Power has partnered with Toshiba and Cargill to design and develop India’s first green, safe and compact natural ester-based pad mount substation. A pad mounted substation is an integrated unit which houses the HT elements, transformer and LT elements in a tank filled with Cargill’s Envirotemp FR3 natural ester fluid. This design has helped reduce the space requirement by almost 70 percent as compared to conventional substations. This fully enclosed safe, fireproof, green and compact design is ideal for installation in public places like parks, malls, etc. The safe and green design of transformer is attributed to the use of natural ester which have a fire point of more than 360-degree Celsius as against 160-degree Celsius for mineral oil and hence is very safe.
These substations are the safest solution to gradually replace the conventional plinth mounted and pole mounted substation filled with mineral oil, installed in public spaces which have fair degree of vulnerability to fire, thus endangering public safety.
Tata Power is India’s largest integrated power company with a growing international presence. The Company together with its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities has an installed gross generation capacity of [9036] MW and a presence in all the segments of the power sector viz. Fuel Security and Logistics, Generation (thermal, hydro, solar and wind), Transmission, Distribution and Trading.
