Technical FAQs 4

What are substation batteries?

Substation batteries are large-scale energy storage units installed within electrical substations. Their primary purpose is to supply backup power during outages, support grid regulation, and ensure continuous operation of protective systems.

Should substations include battery storage?

By incorporating battery storage, substations can ensure a continuous and reliable power supply, even during emergencies. Maintenance programs must be expanded to include electrical substation maintenance routines specific to energy storage interfaces. Visit our Substation Maintenance training course.

What is a power substation?

Electricity substations play a role in both stepping up the voltage of electricity for distribution on grid and in transforming it into lower voltages for delivery to end consumers. The Kawerau substation is one of 13 substations within the Bay of Plenty (BOP) region and is interconnected to the grid through both the 110 kV and 220 kV networks .

Why are substation batteries important for grid stability?

One key component that ensures this reliability is the substation battery. These battery backup systems are vital, providing emergency power and stabilizing the grid during outages or faults. In this blog, we will explore the different types of substation batteries, their functions, and why they are indispensable for grid stability.
