Exploring the often-underestimated link between substation fire safety, transformer fluid choice and project economics.
As utilities, EPCs and industrial operators face increasing pressure to electrify, expand capacity and make better use of available space, substation footprint has become an increasingly important design consideration. Site constraints, project costs and safety requirements all influence how electrical infrastructure is designed and deployed.
This webinar explores how transformer fluid selection can play a strategic role in substation design. Through the lens of transformer fire safety and substation safety engineering, we will examine how ester fluids can influence design decisions, support alternative risk mitigation approaches and create opportunities for more efficient use of space.
Drawing on industry guidance, standards and real-world examples, we will explore how a better understanding of transformer fire consequence can unlock opportunities to reduce complexity, optimise land use and rethink substation design.
This webinar will explore:
- How transformer fluid selection can impact substation size and footprint
- The safe removal of engineering controls and simplified build
- Potential impacts on land use, civil works and project economics
- Review of the relevant standards, guidance and risk-based assessment approaches
