ENERGY DISTRIBUTION
Power consumption of countries is considered as one of the important factors determining their economic growth. However, electricity transmission and distribution networks must be able to meet the increasing energy demand with reliability and sustainability.
YEO offers world-class solutions such as EMS (Energy Management System), GMS (Generation Management System), APM (Asset Performance Management) to ensure reliable power transmission and distribution with electrification, automation, and industrial communication in the construction of substations and power transmission and distribution lines.
High voltage substations are facilities located at the connection points between generation – transmission – distribution networks in the power transmission chain from power plants to consumers. These centers can act as a step-up substation by raising the electrical voltage or as a step-down substation by lowering the electrical voltage.
YEO provides turnkey construction services covering design & engineering, procurement, construction, erection, installation, testing and commissioning processes in a wide range of high voltage substations from 110kV to 500kV.
Air insulated substations consist of primary equipment such as power transformers, breakers, disconnectors, current-voltage transformers, surge arresters and secondary equipment such as protection & control relays, SCADA Systems, RTU and communication systems, AC/DC panels, and control buildings.
Substations are large and complex structures. A reliable substation depends on the quality of the primary and secondary equipment, starting from proper engineering and project management, to effective site management and installation quality.
YEO is able to carry out all design, electrical, mechanical, and construction works with its own teams that have a high level of know-how. One of the most important aspects that distinguishes the Issuer from its competitors is the presence of specialized construction staff.
Gas insulated substations (GIS) with high level of insulation are preferred due to their much smaller footprint compared to air insulated switchgears (AIS). Gas-insulated substations (GIS) are designed with new technologies, which are metal-clad, well-maintained, and insulated with SF6 gas. Breakers, disconnectors, current-voltage transformers, and metal enclosures in these systems are contained in SF6 gas. If maintenance and repairs are carried out regularly, the working life of the plant is much longer than other switchgear plants. It is frequently preferred due to its low maintenance cost and fast installation.
YEO performs turnkey installation of gas insulated substations up to 400kV voltage level, including all detailed engineering works. Since it has realized many high-level projects by using the equipment of the world’s leading manufacturers, it can easily meet the brand and model demands of its clients. The Issuer’s ability to offer brand-independent solutions enables it to offer the most accurate technical solution in the most competitive manner.
Advanced energy management systems have made the digital transformation and rise of energy an inevitable reality. This is where energy asset management comes to the fore. Energy asset management is the process of profiling and evaluating energy resource assets to achieve the highest system performance at the lowest maintenance cost and to place this performance in the context of work, tariff, and load.
This process helps to maximize energy production, minimize downtime, and reduce operation and maintenance costs.
YEO creates one-stop solutions on supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system, energy management system (EMS), and generator control system (GMS), which provide the opportunity to monitor and control all components that make up the interconnected network such as power plants, substations, energy transmission and distribution lines in order to accurately control the energy flow in the ever-changing supply-demand balance.
The systems established by YEO, which use artificial intelligence algorithms, can compare and analyze the current state of a grid with historical data and make an approach for the demand in the near future, evaluate geographical and seasonal conditions, make the closest predictions in the production of renewable power plants, and ensure that the entire energy grid together with conventional power generation facilities operates at the most efficient point, at the lowest cost, and at the most reliable level.
The most important advantage enjoyed by YEO is that it can contribute to the reliability, sustainability, and high efficiency of the energy systems of countries thanks to the partnerships it has established with the leading manufacturers in this field and the solutions it has developed.
As a result of global megatrends that are transforming the world of energy, distribution companies are faced with the imperative to innovate in order to maximize their operations and provide reliable energy to their customers.
YEO offers SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition), DMS (Distribution Management System), OMS (Outage Management System) solutions for remote monitoring of medium voltage centers in electricity distribution networks, instantaneous detection of failures, remote maneuvering, and dispatching fault & maintenance teams to the field in the fastest way. The SCADA system enables the integration of distribution centers into the SCADA system for already installed distribution networks.
YEO offers solutions such as static VAR compensator (SVC), magnetically controlled reactor (MCR), static compensator (STATCOM), and active power filters (APF) in order to eliminate power quality problems caused by harmonics and reactive power flow in electricity distribution networks.
The Issuer also offers energy storage solutions to prevent sudden voltage fluctuations and frequency disturbances with short-term power support in case of imbalances that may occur in the supply-demand balance in electricity distribution networks.
YEO has successfully completed many projects in this field both in Türkiye and abroad.
