ABB wins $47 million power order in Peru

18-Mar-2010 - Peru

ABB will design, supply, install and commission four series compensators and a Static VAr Compensation (SVC) solution to stabilize power flow and increase the capacity of existing 220 kilovolt (kV) transmission lines. The project is expected to be completed by 2011.

SVC and series compensation solutions are used to regulate and stabilize power flow to enhance capacity and reliability in electricity networks.

“This solution is designed to enhance the supply of electricity through the existing transmission network without constructing new lines. It will improve grid stability and help meet growing consumer needs in the region” said Peter Leupp, head of ABB’s Power Systems division.
