Milestone for sustainable energy technology: First Blue GIS switchgear delivered from Rinteln!
A major step towards a sustainable energy supply: The first station featuring the innovative Blue GIS switchgear from Siemens has left the factory in Rinteln, marking a significant milestone for the future of the energy sector. This eco-friendly technology is a crucial component of the energy transition, combining efficiency, safety, and climate protection.
Revolutionary Switchgear Without SF6 Gas
Blue GIS relies on completely SF6-free switching technology, offering a substantial improvement over conventional solutions. SF6, a potent greenhouse gas with a global warming potential about 22,800 times greater than CO₂, has been widely used in switchgear. By eliminating this gas, the new system actively contributes to greenhouse gas reduction and already meets strict EU regulations set to ban SF6 in new medium-voltage switchgear starting in 2026.
Proven Usability Meets Innovative Technology
Despite its advanced technology, operating the Siemens Blue GIS 24 remains familiar and safe. It upholds the trusted quality standards and appearance of its predecessors, making the transition easy for planners, grid operators, and users. Additionally, the compact dimensions of the switchgear provide ample space for additional protection and metering technology, ensuring seamless integration into existing station designs.
Sustainability Through Innovation
Die Station überzeugt nicht nur durch ihre Schalttechnik: Die Aluminiumtüren mit integrierten Lüftungslamellen, gefertigt von SMA Tech GmbH & Co. KGstand for sustainable material utilisation and efficient production. These doors combine innovative functionality and economy and thus contribute to the overall quality of the station.
Future-Proof Energy Supply
With the Blue GIS switchgear, SCHEIDT once again demonstrates its leadership in environmentally friendly and future-ready energy infrastructure. Featuring tested station types that meet the highest safety standards, the company offers solutions suitable for both urban and rural energy projects.
