New 110 kV Incoming Supply System for Power Import into the Albbruck Paper Mill (MD Papier) STEAG Energy Services provided assistance for the new construction of the 110 kV incoming supply system for power import into the paper mill at Albbruck and switchover to the new system. The new installations were commissioned by MD Papier in order to improve power import flexibility. Overall view of the paper mill site The Project STEAG-Services MD Papier operates a paper mill at Albbruck, including three paper machines, grinding plant and a hard-coal-fired power plant for steam and electricity production. Previously, the factory was supplied from the 20 kV grid. The existing 20 kV power import facilities restricted the options for import of electricity from external suppliers. In order to enhance flexibility for power import, a new highcapacity, redundant 110 kV switchgear was designed and implemented. STEAG provided technical and organizational assistance to the Client throughout the 110 kV switchyard project. This included the following services: Along with this measure, the meshed site network was converted into a star-shaped distribution structure and expanded. • • • • • • • • Preparation of concept for electrical site network Stationary and dynamic system calculations Preparation of tender documents; 10 lots Bid evaluation and contract award recommendation Design review: basic / detail-engineering Coordination of interfaces Quality assurance in manufacturer‘s works and at the plant site Organizational and technical support during switchover to new system STEAG Energy Services GmbH · Rüttenscheider Str. 1-3 · 45128 Essen · Germany · Fon +49 201/801-0 · Fax +49 201/801-6388 Internet: http://www.steag-energyservices.com · Email: info-energyservices@steag.com Facts and figures Client Construction time Measures MD Papier 12 months 2x 110 kV switch bays, 110 kV cables, 80 MVA grid transformers 1x 20 kV double busbar switchyard, 3x 10/20 distribution transformers 6 kV switching station, medium-voltage cabling Chronicle April 2005 May / June 2005 November 2005 January 2006 Jan.-March 2006 March 2006 Contract award Completion of technical specifications Field erection of 20 and 110 kV switchgears, 110 kV cabling Field erection of grid transformers Commissioning Switchover of the paper mill to the new system Key data Grid connection Transformer rating Grid voltage level 2x 80 MVA 110 kV Central 20 kV switchyard Short-circuit current Ik” Double-busbar system 31.5 A SF6-insulated, 15 bays Distribution transformers Transformer rating Transformation ration Type 2x 20 MVA; 1x 10 MVA 20 kV / 6 kV Resin-encapsulated transformers STEAG Energy Services GmbH · Rüttenscheider Str. 1-3 · 45128 Essen · Germany · Fon +49 201/801-0 · Fax +49 201/801-6388 Internet: http://www.steag-energyservices.com · Email: info-energyservices@steag.com
