The project is expected to meet the growing demand for power in the capital city of the UAE.
As part of the turnkey contract, Siemens will supply, deliver, install, test and hand over the 400/220/33-kV grid substation and components, including gas-insulated switchgears, 500MVA and 100MVA transformers, reactors and all other supporting technology.
The grid substation will connect the new Mirfa Power Plant with the TRANSCO network.
Siemens Energy Middle East CEO Dietmar Siersdorfer said the demand for power in Abu Dhabi has increased as various industries are developing and expanding the city.
"Executing the grid substation at Mirfa is an important step towards achieving this goal," Siersdorfer added.
"Moreover, this agreement underscores our long-standing relationship with TRANSCO and the trust placed in Siemens technologies."
TRANSCO is a subsidiary of Abu Dhabi Water and Electricity Authority (ADWEA), the owner of Abu Dhabi’s power generation and transmission grid.
