        Electrical Energy solution: Biosco MV/LV prefabricated substations

         
         

        Value proposition

        Main drivers

        • Growth of MV electrical distribution network in new economies.
        • Increase of network quality based on underground network and prefabricated substations.

         

        Value proposition
        • For the End-user (Utilities), compared to traditional civil works substations, prefabricated substations offer:

           - Much better safety for the public and operators: Compliance with the IEC standards.
           - 20% cost savings: Factory assembled and tested.
           - 30% time savings: plug and play solution delivered ready to be connected.

        • For the partners, they offer:

           - Market differenciation: Compliance with IEC standards, Schneider Electric brand image.
           - 30% cost savings: No engineering costs, already carried out by Schneider Electric.
           - 2 times faster time to market: immediate availability of Biosco.

        Differenciation factors

        • Business model through partners.
        • Adaptation to meet local needs: local transformer, climatic conditions, landscape integration, etc.
