Penrose New Interconnecting Transformer

Overview

What we're doing

Penrose New Location (June 2009)

As part of the North Auckland and Northland (NAAN) Grid Upgrade, Transpower is installing a new 250 MVA interconnecting transformer at the Penrose substation.  The new transformer is required to meet load increases at Penrose following changes needed for other components of the NAAN project.

Why we're doing it

This project together with the other components of the NAAN project will provide sufficient capacity for the foreseeable future.
