Northeast Utilities Contracts with AREVA
AREVA T&D has signed a contract with Northeast Utilities (NU) to provide high-voltage power transformers to be installed in Connecticut and New Hampshire. AREVA T&D will provide fourteen 200-MVA, 345-kV/115-kV single-phase autotransformers in support of three transmission system improvement projects in the region that will strengthen reliability and provide access to competitively priced power.
The units will be manufactured at AREVA T&D's high-voltage/extra-high-voltage transformer facility in Canoas, Brazil, and are scheduled for delivery to NU in 2007 and 2008. The winning of this contract “is consistent with our objective to provide a complete offering from the meter to the market,” said Joe Graziano, AREVA T&D's Northeast U.S. regional vice president.
