新的变电站设计将使20,000多名托莱多爱迪生的客户受益
AKRON, Ohio, Oct. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Work is underway by a subsidiary of FirstEnergy Corp. (NYSE: FE) to expand and upgrade a high-voltage substation in Sylvania Township, Lucas County. The project will include installing new automated equipment and technology to enhance electric service reliability for more than 20,000 Toledo Edison customers in northwestern Ohio.
俄亥俄州阿克伦，2024年10月1日/ PR Newswire / - 第一能源公司（NYSE: FE）的子公司正在扩建和升级卢卡斯县斯兰县的一个高压变电站。该项目将包括安装新的自动化设备和技术，以提高俄亥俄州西北部20,000多名托莱多爱迪生客户的电力服务可靠性。
American Transmission Systems, Inc. (ATSI) will expand the substation from 17,000 square feet to 49,900 square feet on company-owned property and change how it is set up to help avoid or minimize future power outages. The current substation has one main electrical connection for all the power lines that extend from the facility. The new setup will have separate sections to help isolate issues and prevent service interruptions by allowing the power flow to be rerouted when equipment in the facility needs maintenance.
美国传输系统公司（ATSI）将在公司拥有的地产上将变电站从17,000平方英尺扩展到49,900平方英尺，并改变其设置，以帮助避免或最小化未来的停电。当前的变电站有一个主要电力连接，适用于所有从设施延伸出来的电线。新的设置将有分开的部分，以帮助隔离问题，并通过允许在设施需要维护时重新路由电流来防止服务中断。
Mark Mroczynski, FirstEnergy's President of Transmission: "This important upgrade to our substation in Lucas County will strengthen the transmission system and help minimize the risk of outages for thousands of Toledo Edison customers while providing us with the flexibility we need to maintain or repair our equipment in the future without disrupting customers."
FirstEnergy的变电主席马克·姆罗钦斯基："卢卡斯县变电站的这一重要升级将加强输电系统，并帮助减少托莱多爱迪生数千客户停电的风险，同时为我们提供了在未来维护或修理设备时所需的灵活性，而不干扰客户。"
As part of the approximately $15 million project, ATSI is adding enhanced equipment that will help personnel proactively identify potential issues and address them in a timely manner.
作为约1500万美元项目的一部分，ATSI正在增加增强型设备，将帮助人员主动识别潜在问题并及时解决。
Expected to be complete and in service in early 2025, the project is part of Energize365, a multi-year grid evolution program focused on transmission and distribution investments that will deliver the power FirstEnergy's customers depend on today while also meeting the challenges of tomorrow. With planned investments of $26 billion between 2024 and 2028, the program will create a smarter, more secure grid that will meet and exceed reliability targets and accommodate electric vehicles, the electrification of homes and businesses, and clean energy sources.
预计将于2025年初完工并投入运营，该项目是Energize365计划的一部分，该计划是一个多年的网格演变项目，重点是输电和配电投资，将为FirstEnergy的客户提供他们今天所依赖的电力，同时也满足未来的挑战。该计划计划在2024年至2028年间投资260亿美元，将创建一个更智能，更安全的电网，以满足并超过可靠性目标，并适应新能源车，家庭和企业的电气化，以及清洁能源。
