C&P’s high voltage company, C&P High Voltage Services have been busy this week completing the 1st phase of construction of a high voltage ring for the future development of a multi-million-pound Eco Park development for Rhondda Cynon Taf Council – the facility will be the first of its kind in the UK.
Once completed the electrical infrastructure will be extended into phase 2 to supply further factory buildings for future recycled materials production.
C&P High Voltage services division will provide enabling works which includes design, supply, install, test and commissioning for a 2MVA package substation, Ring Main Unit (RMU), HV cable system for a 2MVA package substation, Low Voltage (LV) cable system for Mattress recycling, visitor centre fence distribution board, feeder pillar to replace perimeter fence distribution board and Low Voltage (LV) cable transfers.
This week a smart feeder pillar was installed, along with a 2MVA transformer and RN2D close coupled RMU with VIP protection on the circuit breaker. This will allow for remote monitoring and operation through a BMS or website control platform.
Eco Park Development – which would be the first of its kind in the UK
Over the past 18-months C&P has been rapidly expanding its high voltage services and maintenance activities, securing a number of critical projects and contracts across the UK.
David Demock, C&P’s High Voltage Engineering Director commented: “We are extremely pleased to partner with Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council to deliver such an important phase for this prestigious project. We have been adding to our power engineering capabilities over the past few years which has assisted us to grow and offer clients such as Rhondda Cynon Taf Council even more value through our unique approach.
Using our own people, plant and highly experienced engineering solutions we are pleased that we can play a vital role in the development of the park. This will ultimately help to recycle more, protect the environment and create commercial opportunities and job creation in the Cynon Valley”.
