Technical Webinar – Asset Replacement projects (HV/LV)


Date : 24 Aug 2022
Time : 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm
Venue : Online Meeting via Microsoft Team

With the electricity being supplied by the two power companies of HK, MTR has her own power distribution network to serve the HK railway services. The total power output is close to 250 MegaWatt which is sufficient to serve almost 200,000 people of Hong Kong every day. The existing high voltage power equipment and the low voltage systems up to the switchboard level have been put into services in stages since 1979, including the earliest sections of Kwun Tong Line, Tsuen Wan Line and Island Line. After decades of services, the earliest power supply systems are now undergoing an asset replacement project. With the provision of technologies, the power distribution system of MTR including its power system capacity, overall system reliability, maintainability and overall energy efficiencies will be enhanced. The Seminar will introduce the design and replacement strategy of the new generation power supply systems.
