瑞士蘇黎世3月31日消息——全球領先的電力和自動化技術集團ABB公司今天宣布贏得了價值2,400萬美元的合同，幫助瑞典東南部奧斯卡桑(Oskarshamn)核電廠核反應堆3號機組增加發電量。

The plant’s owner, OKG, wants to increase power generation from 1,200 to 1,450 megawatts, which is enough additional power to heat about 100,000 homes. ABB is a subcontractor to Alstom Power Sweden on the project, which was awarded by OKG to perform the necessary upgrades on the turbine and electrical plant.

該核電廠的擁有者OKG公司希望把發電量從1,200兆瓦特增加到1,450兆瓦特，這增加的電量足夠滿足了100,000個家庭的需求量。ABB是該工程的次承包商，主承包商瑞典阿爾斯通電力公司（Alstom Power Sweden）

“ABB provides world leading instrumentation, control and electrification systems for power plant upgrades such as this,” said Samir Brikho, head of ABB’s Power Systems division. “ABB also has broad product and nuclear power plant competence, which for our customer was a decisive factor in the awarding this contract.”

ABB電力系統部主管Samir Brikho說道：“ABB為此類電廠的升級提供了世界領先的使用儀器、控制和電氣化系統。ABB同樣也有廣泛的產品和核電廠能力。

ABB will deliver power transformers, modifications and certification of generator circuit breakers and isolated phase bus ducts, as well as project work and support to the plant.

ABB將交付電力變壓器，發電機電路斷路器的修正和證明，隔離相位總線管，以及支持電廠的項目工作。

ABB’s technology will be used to transmit electricity reliably and safely from the plant’s power generators to Sweden’s 400-kilovolt (kV) grid. The project is scheduled for completion in mid-2008.

ABB的技術將應用于使電力從核電廠的發電機可靠安全地轉送到瑞典的400千伏特電網上。該項目預計在2008年中期竣工。

OKG operates three nuclear power plants, which together supply 10 percent of Sweden’s total electricity supply. Oskarshamn Unit 3 is OKG’s largest reactor, which after the upgrade will operate until 2045.

OKG 公司運營著三個核電廠，提供著瑞典全國電力供應總量的10% 。奧斯卡桑核3號機組是OKG最大的反應堆，在升級完成之后，將服役至2045年。
