The first transformer containing CO2-reduced Bluemint transformer steel delivered to a German customer

We delivered a voltage regulation transformer containing CO2-reduced Bluemint transformer steel - top quality transformer steel with allocated CO2 reductions that lead to reduced product-related carbon intensity of nearly 50% compared to the traditional manufacturing.

In mid-2023, we successfully tested the first of the five contracted 63 MVA, 63 kV 115/21 regulating transformers, manufactured for the needs of a long-term German partner. This is the first MV transformer containing CO2-reduced Bluemint transformer steel - top quality transformer steel with allocated CO2 reductions that lead to reduced product-related carbon intensity of nearly 50% compared to the traditional manufacturing. Replacing coal with hydrogen in manufacturing enables manufacturers to overcome the barriers on the path to climate neutrality. 

KONČAR has readily responded to climate challenges with investments in the green economy and sustainable energy transition, driving the transformation towards a low-carbon economy.
