POWERCHINA subsidiary increases substation design efficiency

It's seen to help Jiangxi Province.

Power Construction Corporation of China (POWERCHINA) subsidiary Jiangxi Electric Power Design Institute (JXEPDI) delivered the 220 kilovolt Duxiling Substation for owner-operator China State Grid Corporation to support economic development and enhance the quality of life in Jiangxi Province.

According to a report from Bentley Systems, this was done by improving the electricity network and power supply reliability.

It also noted that using Bentley’s substation solution, which provided a unified environment for structural, physical, and electrical design, the institute was able to eliminate inconsistencies and perform concurrent engineering.

Further, the report said that as a result, the design efficiency of the CNY 81 million substation was significantly enhanced by avoiding silos of data and many errors that can occur with the use of separate products for site design, physical layout, and electrical systems design.

Here's more from Bentley Systems:

The design institute recognized that past substation design practices had been inefficient and caused duplication of effort.

Without a collaborative design process, each design discipline (site, structural, physical, and electrical) had created its own separate substation model, which led to design inconsistencies, collision problems, and rework.

This workflow also had rendered the design team unable to provide a comprehensive substation model for construction.

JXEPDI sought a comprehensive solution that could help accomplish substation projects more efficiently through a collaborative design process among all disciplines.

The institute routinely promotes technological innovation, and communicates with both domestic and international leaders in the field to learn from their experience and adopt the best practices.

Bentley’s substation solution was adopted to improve collaboration, quality and efficiency, and to facilitate the transfer of a digital substation model to construction.
