高質量可靠的電力幫助安哥拉的發展和降低對環境的不良影響

Zurich, Switzerland, Nov. 21, 2007 – ABB, the leading power and automation technology group, has won a $45 million contract from Angola’s Empresa Nacional de Electricidade (ENE) to connect the electrical grids in the northern and central parts of the country.

瑞士蘇黎世11月21日消息——領先的電力和自動化技術集團ABB從安哥拉ENE公司贏得了一份價值4千5百萬美元的合同，為該國北部和中部的電網提供連接。

ABB’s delivery will contribute to a reduction in CO2 and NOx emissions from fossil fuels by enabling more hydropower generated in the north to be fed into the central electrical grid. The availability of reliable, quality power will support economic development in the central region and create job opportunities.

ABB項目的交付，將在北方產生更多的水力發電饋入中部電力網，有助于減少來自石化燃料的二氧化碳和氮氧化物的排放量。獲得可靠高品質的電力將支持中部地區的經濟發展，并創造就業機會。

“Reliable supplies of electricity are an essential ingredient of economic growth,” said Peter Leupp, head of ABB’s Power Systems division. “We are very pleased to work with ENE to connect people in Angola with a stable source of power that will help to improve the nation’s living conditions.”

ABB電力系統部主管Peter Leupp表示：“電力的可靠供應是經濟發展的一個基本組成部分。我們很高興可以跟ENE共同努力，為安哥拉人民連接可靠的電力源，幫助改善這個國家人民的生活條件。”

The power system will comprise two substations, in Gabela and Quileva, and a series compensation system to be installed at Gabela. The system will be controlled and monitored with a MicroSCADA installation to help prevent disturbance, plan power consumption, and provide control over the power supply with real-time data from the substations.

該電力系統將有兩座變電站組成，分別位于 Gabela 和Quileva，以及一系列將安裝于 Gabela 的補償系統。該系統將由一套MicroSCADA安裝系統控制和監視，幫助免受干擾，計劃用電量，以及通過來自變電站的實時數據為整個電力供應提供控制。

The MicroSCADA control system will also be prepared for integration with a planned national control center.

這個MicroSCADA控制系統還將準備與一個計劃好了的國家控制中心整合。
