Schneider Electric Secures Major Order from Tata Power for SF6-Free Green Switchgear
Tata Power and Schneider Electric will launch these RMUs in the Mumbai and Delhi areas, offering a new generation of medium-voltage/low-voltage (MV/LV) substation equipment as an alternative to traditional SF6 (sulphur hexafluoride) gas. Although SF6 is a highly effective insulating gas in electrical equipment, it has a very high Global Warming Potential (GWP) and is targeted by the Kyoto Protocol for its environmental impact. The project is expected to reduce Tata Power's carbon footprint by up to 75% compared to conventional SF6 RMUs. Additionally, Tata Power will benefit from up to 50% in cost savings over the lifespan of these new RMUs. Deepak Sharma, Zone President – Greater India & MD & CEO of Schneider Electric, commented, 'Partnering with Tata Power on this transformative project marks a major milestone for us. The RM AirSeT units enhance both the reliability and safety of power distribution, while also underscoring our commitment to sustainability and innovation. This project is a crucial step towards supporting India's net-zero targets for 2070 and highlights our ongoing dedication to delivering eco-friendly solutions that meet our customers' evolving needs.' Sanjay Banga, President of Transmission and Distribution at Tata Power, emphasized the company's commitment to sustainability, stating, 'At Tata Power, we are focused on building a robust, sustainable energy ecosystem. Our partnership with Schneider Electric, with the introduction of SF6-Free RMUs in Mumbai and Delhi, and eventually in Odisha Discoms, is a perfect reflection of our vision. This initiative will significantly cut carbon emissions and improve the efficiency and reliability of power distribution.' Dr. Nilesh Kane, Chief Distribution (Mumbai) at Tata Power, added, 'We are proud to lead the way in adopting SF6-free technology in Mumbai. The RM AirSeT units will play a key role in our efforts to minimize environmental impact while ensuring efficient, reliable power distribution. This partnership with Schneider Electric reflects our shared commitment to a greener future.' The RM AirSeT units replace traditional SF6 gas with pressurized air, making them more environmentally friendly while maintaining high performance and durability. These robust systems are designed for increased endurance, extending the lifespan of the equipment. This collaboration between Schneider Electric and Tata Power sets a new standard for sustainable power distribution in India, leading the charge towards a cleaner and more efficient energy future.
