SE Bellavista Project

Implementation of GIS (Gas Insulated Substation) technology has come to stay in Panama.

– July 2018

Izharia Engineering  has developed the complete detailed engineering, including civil and electromechanical works, for the  Bellavista GIS Substation 13,8/115/230 kV – 90 MVA in Panama City, Panama, working for our client Gas Natural Fenosa / Edemet.

Developed with GIS (Gas Insulated Substation) technology, the Electrical Substation has been constructed inside a large building fitting Panama City municipal requirements and neighborhood space limitations at its current location.

The building consists of three floors plus basement. The instalation is one of the greatest and biggest of its kind and has been designed for to accommodate potential capacity increase to face Panama´s present and future developement.

Benefiting Panama City and nearby provinces as part of the Electric Transmission System modernization currently being implemented by Gas Natural Fenosa / EDEMET, Bellavista Substation is one of the most important Projects to be commissioned in years to come.

This project, which is the second of its kind developed by Izharia Engineering in Panama is currently in construction phase under our firm supervision
