SFC for railway traction power supply in Bützow and Schwerin
ChallengeTo increase availability and reduce maintenance efforts while maintaining the traction power supply service level at the lowest possible cost, DB wished to replace its existing rotating equipment in Bützow and Schwerin (Germany). For both locations, two static converter stations of 2x15 MW each to feed the 16.7 Hz 15 kV overhead catenaries were contracted as a turn-key project to a consortium with Power Conversion & Storage as the key participant. The systems are currently in commissioning phase.
