One of Brunstock’s Representatives is Sponsoring a Major Electrical Engineering Event

TGOOD Australia Gold Sponsor at EECON24

Energy Collage Australia by EESA for EECON24

EECON24 is an Electrical Energy Conference held in Australia once a year by the Electrical Energy Society of Australia to connect the local energy industry. The Australian representative of our switchgear and substations, TGOOD Australia, is sponsoring the event. CEO, Chris Ball, will be speaking at the opening plenary session for ten minutes. As Australian renewable projects gather pace, more and more opportunities exist for forward-thinking businesses like TGOOD. We are excited to see our brand promoted at the event by Chris and his team. If you are attending, please say hello. Read more on the TGOOD website.

Brunstock’s Green Gas Insulated Switchgear

Environmentally Friendly Gas

Ambitious climate requirements have been set by many countries in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, the Asia-Pacific region and elsewhere. A significant step towards this occurred because of the 2005 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the 2016 Paris Agreement, which was later built upon by the 2021 Glasgow Climate Pact.

Many nations have implemented measures to control greenhouse gas emissions, in an effort to keep global temperature rise within 2°C. In the power industry we can contribute to these efforts by reducing the use of SF6 as the insulating medium in gas-insulated switchgear.

Brunstock’s 12 and 40.5kV gas insulated secondary switchgear (GIS) contain dry air, which is an environmentally friendly gas that gives projects around the world a pathway to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly substation. Not only that, but it won’t blow your budget! Our dry air gas is derived from compressed air and this eliminates concerns about the greenhouse effect while offering effective insulation for the electrical equipment. Dry air is non-toxic and harmless, ensuring no safety hazards for maintenance personnel in case of gas leakage.

Are you ready for the green GIS revolution? Brunstock is using dry air instead of SF6 gas as the insulating medium in its primary and secondary switchgear. Our SF6-free power equipment is kind to your budget and to the environment. This medium-voltage GIS product adopts vacuum switching and SF6-free sealing technology, with its main circuit/high-voltage components in the gas tanks. It can operate under harsh environmental conditions, such as dust, humidity, saline air and even at high altitude. It has broad applications in renewable wind farms and solar farms, utilities, oil and gas, mining, commercial and industry, as well as airports and railways.

Brunstock’s green GIS is compact, which makes it easy for you to fit it into your project site, while allowing power asset protection and operational continuity during the transition to SF6-free.

Brunstock’s green GIS will save you money

Far from being a more expensive option, Brunstock’s green GIS products are competitive with SF6 insulated switchgear. Our representatives can meet most SF6 switchgear competitor pricing, if not better it!

During project inception you may not be thinking about the end of the substation’s lifecycle. The commonplace SF6 gas insulated switchgear requires treatment for disposal. The dry air used by Brunstock in BGS-12, BGS-40.5 and BGP-40.5 will not need additional treatment, saving costs and reducing the environmental impact of your project and site.

Brunstock switchgear is delivered in modules that fit inside standard shipping containers. This allows the switchgear to be transported to the end user’s site without additional gas treatment. There are costs to be saved and improvements to efficiency from such forward-thinking design. Furthermore, because Brunstock builds the switchgear in the step-up or collector station required, it is strong and well-constructed. Electrical buildings and rooms can be replaced or expanded easily.

Standards

Brunstock’s green switchgear complies with all the applicable electrical standards, including:

  • IEC 62271-100
  • IEC 62271-102
  • IEC 62271-103
  • IEC 62271-200
