At the Guangdong Honghai Bay offshore project site, a rigorous type test successfully concluded. The 500 kV offshore wind power specialized reactor independently developed by TBEA Hengyang Transformer has passed all tests at once. This 150 megawatt low voltage equipment faces the test of deep sea salt spray and high humidity vibration, breaking through multiple technical bottlenecks and laying a solid foundation for the core equipment of offshore wind power transmission.

Overcoming the barriers of hardcore technology

This 500 kV reactor is a core equipment for voltage regulation and stability control in offshore power grids. It can compensate for line capacitive reactive power, suppress system overvoltage, and is an economical and simple solution suitable for offshore engineering. The development of equipment is extremely difficult. Under high voltage and large capacity working conditions, it must withstand harsh marine environments for a long time, and solve problems such as disturbed leakage magnetic fields, uneven insulation, corrosion resistance, and attenuation. It puts forward extremely high standards for the control of the entire manufacturing process.

Unite and overcome the situation

TBEA Hengyang Transformer collaborates with multiple teams to optimize internal structure layout and upgrade shielding technology, resolving industry pain points such as magnetic field interference and abnormal heating. The product has been optimized synchronously in terms of corrosion resistance, vibration resistance, energy consumption, insulation and temperature control. The test data shows that the equipment operates stably, and the reliability under complex sea conditions has reached an excellent level in the industry, which has been fully recognized by the acceptance team.

Deeply cultivating the new energy track

This experiment successfully replenished the production capacity of high-end offshore power transmission and transformation equipment for enterprises, and strengthened the supply capacity of deep-sea offshore wind power equipment. In the future, TBEA Hengyang Transformer will continue to promote technological iteration and upgrading, polish high-end power equipment, support the large-scale development of offshore wind power, and assist in the construction of China's new power system and energy transformation.Editor/Min Jing
