Technical FAQs 4

What is a container substation?

Home / Container substations, also known as mobile or prefabricated substations, are an increasingly popular solution in the field of electrical power distribution.

Why are container substations important?

The flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and rapid deployment capabilities of container substations make them a crucial asset in industries where power demands can change rapidly or in areas where constructing a traditional substation would be impractical.

What is a containerized mobile substation?

Containerized mobile substations are sheltered and address applications in challenging environmental conditions including areas of high pollution, and humidity. Customers requiring shorter overall delivery times and minimal on-site work have been the main drivers for Hitachi Energy's development of pre-fabricated indoor substations.

What is a modular substation?

These modular substations represent a modern and innovative approach to electrical power distribution. Their portability, rapid deployment, cost-effectiveness, and reliability make them an attractive solution for a wide range of applications, from remote industrial sites to urban power grids.
