      SÃO PAULO, 23 de outubro de 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- A S&C Electric Company, líder global da tecnologia Smart Grid, que molda o futuro do fornecimento de energia elétrica de forma confiável, anunciou hoje a assinatura de um contrato de R$ 78 milhões para a substituição de painéis de média tensão para distribuição subterrânea na Cemig Distribuição SA, a maior empresa de distribuição de energia no Brasil. A Cemig vai instalar mais de 450 painéis da S&C tipo Vista® nas cidades do estado de Minas Gerais, incluindo a área metropolitana de Belo Horizonte.

      A substituição dos painéis de média tensão é parte de um importante programa de renovação de ativos na Cemig, que resultará na funcionalidade moderna da rede elétrica inteligente para o negócio local e para as 18 milhões de pessoas a que serve. A modernização da área da rede elétrica vai melhorar a confiabilidade do fornecimento de energia elétrica bem como a eficiência da rede, fundamental em um momento que o Brasil se prepara para a Copa do Mundo de 2014.

      "Ao substituir os painéis antigos por equipamentos automatizados, a Cemig está tomando medidas importantes para melhorar a confiabilidade do fornecimento de energia elétrica, que é importante não só para uma Copa bem-sucedida, mas também para apoiar um maior crescimento econômico na área", diz Cleverson Takiguchi, gerente-geral da S&C Brasil.

      O painel tipo Vista® automatizado que a S&C está fornecendo irá transferir uma carga de energia elétrica a uma fonte alternativa de eletricidade, no caso de interrupção da fonte primária. Este nível avançado de automação vai ajudar a reduzir significativamente as interrupções de energia, uma grande preocupação em Minas Gerais. Além disso, os painéis são compostos por mais de 70 por cento de conteúdo local, resultando que grande parte do fluxo de receita permaneça dentro do país.

      "Ter um serviço de energia elétrica confiável é uma preocupação constante nesta área, que está vivenciando um crescimento econômico positivo e despertando atenção global. Investimentos em redes inteligentes, como este programa, podem ajudar a Cemig a manter as luzes acesas para empresas e residentes", diz Takiguchi.

      Para este projeto, a S&C está fornecendo um modelo do painel tipo Vista® especialmente desenvolvido para aplicações subterrâneas. Essas instalações – necessárias devido a restrições de espaço – estão crescendo de forma desafiadora com o aumento de alagamentos nas cidades brasileiras que continuam a crescer. O novo painel tipo Vista® opera corretamente mesmo quando os painéis de automação estão submersos.

      "A Cemig possui mais de uma década de experiência com o painel tipo Vista®," diz Takiguchi, "tendo aplicado o equipamento em diversas instalações, que demonstraram desempenho superior em ambientes hostis".

      Como parte do projeto, a S&C conduzirá serviços de start-up e comissionamento dos equipamentos de automação. A empresa também instalará sensores nas câmaras subterrâneas, os quais permitirão o monitoramento das condições das câmaras como invasões das câmaras; condições ambientais incluindo temperatura e potenciais alagamentos; e desempenho dos equipamentos elétricos, incluindo transformadores e protetores de rede onde aplicáveis. A solução completa ajudará a garantir o desempenho ideal da rede de distribuição subterrânea da Cemig.

      Sobre a S&C Electric Company
      A S&C, com sede em Chicago, EUA, e operações em São José dos Pinhais/PR, está aplicando seu patrimônio de inovação para enfrentar desafios referentes às redes de energia elétrica do mundo e assim moldando o futuro do fornecimento de energia elétrica confiável. A missão da S&C é desenvolver continuamente novas soluções para distribuição de eletricidade, promovendo a melhoria da eficiência e confiabilidade necessária para a rede elétrica inteligente.
