Azerbaijan 110kV Regional Substation Modernization
Client: Regional Energy Utility, Azerbaijan
Project Type: Grid Substation Upgrade
Voltage Class: 110kV
Application: Regional transmission and distribution grid stabilization
Status: Successfully Commissioned
The Challenge:
Azerbaijan's expanding industrial sector was placing increasing strain on
aging grid infrastructure. The regional utility required a reliable, high-
performance 110kV power transformer capable of withstanding the country's
significant seismic activity while delivering consistent power to a rapidly
growing population.
Our Solution:
Milestone Power engineered and delivered a custom 110kV oil-immersed power
transformer with the following specifications tailored to the project:
• Seismic-resistant tank and base frame design (Zone 8 earthquake standard)
• High-grade silicon steel core with low no-load loss profile
• Advanced hermetic sealing system (maintenance-free, no oil expansion tank)
• Full IEC 60076 compliance with third-party type test certification
• Complete export documentation package for customs clearance
The Outcome:
• Grid stability improved significantly in the serviced region
• Zero reported failures in the first 24 months of operation
• On-time delivery achieved within the project's critical path timeline
• Client placed follow-up order for an additional substation unit
"The transformer arrived on schedule with all documentation complete.
The installation was straightforward and commissioning was smooth.
We are very satisfied with Milestone's technical support."
