Sustainability
The client aims to construct a digital substation, El Conde, to enhance sustainability, efficiency, and reliability in their electrical infrastructure.
The project involves implementing modular merging units. These units convert analog information into digital sampled values and process digital information according to IEC 61869-9 and IEC 61850-9-2 standards. The communication between units and control equipment is facilitated through redundant fiber optic channels and PRP redundancy to ensure reliable data transmission. 
Implementing the Siemens process bus in El Conde Substation enhanced reliability and safety, reduced cabling, ensured interoperability, enabled real-time monitoring, and improved cost efficiency. It also enhanced sustainability by improving energy efficiency, reducing material use, and lowering the carbon footprint. It optimized resources and extends equipment lifespan, contributing to a more sustainable and efficient power system.
  • Enhanced reliability and safety: Siemens’ process bus technology uses digital communications and fiber optics, which improve system reliability and reduce the risk of electrical failures and short circuits. Also the use of digital communications and fiber optics reduces energy consumption compared to traditional copper wiring. This leads to lower operational energy requirements and contributes to overall energy efficiency.
  • Interoperability and flexibility: The process bus is designed according to the IEC 61850 standard, facilitating interoperability between different equipment and manufacturers.
  • Real-time monitoring and control: Data is transmitted in real time, enabling more precise and faster monitoring and control of substation conditions. This also reduces the need for maintenance trips, which in turn lowers the carbon footprint associated with maintenance activities.
  • Cost efficiency: Over time, the reduction in wiring and the improvement in operational efficiency can lead to lower maintenance and operation costs.
  • Sustainability - reduced cabling: By replacing traditional copper cables with fiber optics, the amount of necessary wiring is significantly reduced, simplifying installation and maintenance; as well as reducing the environmental impact associated with mining and processing these materials.
