IMEFY supplies its oil distribution transformers for the Deux-Acren electrical storage plant

With a capacity of 100 MWh, the Deux-Acren storage plant is the largest in the European electricity grid. CORSICA SOLE built this plant in 6 months, which consists entirely of lithium-ion batteries and provides frequency regulation in the Belgian electricity grid. With this project, CORSICA SOLE changes scale and becomes one of the European leaders in the sector.

This new plant, which will be commissioned in autumn 2022, is responsible for energy storage. It consists entirely of lithium-ion batteries, which ensures frequency regulation in the Belgian electricity grid.

Energy storage: the cornerstone of the European Union’s energy independence

In the context of the energy crisis, energy storage is now a cornerstone of the European Union’s energy independence. In this way, the EU can control its energy production and thus its costs. In addition to being economical, storage plants can be built in less than a year and can respond quickly to the energy crisis. The multiplication of this type of project is therefore a strategic challenge to ensure Europe’s energy sovereignty.

The Deux Acren power plant has therefore relied on the use of transformers immersed in dielectric liquids, manufactured by IMEFY at its factory in Los Yébenes (Toledo). A total of 20 transformers with a power of up to 2500 kVA have been supplied by IMEFY, all of them meeting the highest quality standards required by the end customer.

Our oil-filled distribution transformers supplied to Deux-Acren

Our engineering department designs and calculates our distribution transformers for both Europe and the rest of the world, which are then manufactured using our technological resources throughout the production process and final tests. All the materials used in the manufacture of transformers undergo strict quality controls before use, in order to guarantee maximum reliability and safety of the final product.

Distribution transformers immersed in dielectric liquids are approved by numerous electricity companies all over the world. Achieving these approvals and certifications throughout IMEFY’s history has involved significant investments in technological equipment at all levels.

We continue to add projects in the international market

Thanks to the development of manufacturing techniques and the high reliability of the materials used, this type of transformer supplied to Deux-Acren is increasingly used on the international market.

In addition, their high reliability, low maintenance requirements and minimal environmental impact help IMEFY to continue adding projects and developing in the international market.
