Fire-retardant renovation of power system substations is underway, with annual demand exceeding 5 billion yuan.
2025-10-25
As the power system expands in scale and equipment ages, the demand for fire protection upgrades at substations continues to grow, with the annual market size expected to exceed 5 billion yuan. Currently, addressing fire hazards at substations nationwide has become a key industry focus. The upgrade efforts are concentrated on three main areas: upgrading fire-fighting facilities, enhancing the fire resistance of equipment, and improving emergency response systems.
In terms of fire protection facilities, the renovation project was carried out strictly in accordance with the "Fire Protection Design Standards for Thermal Power Plants and Substations." The key focus was on adding an intelligent fire alarm system that enables dual-parameter linkage alarms for both smoke and temperature. Additionally, an adequate number of fire extinguishers and fire hydrants were installed to ensure compliance with the national standard requiring at least one fire extinguisher per 100 square meters within the coverage radius. For high-risk areas such as cable tunnels, fire-retardant coatings and thermal insulation techniques were employed to reduce the risk of fire spread.
In terms of equipment fire protection, we are enhancing the insulation performance and optimizing heat dissipation for critical equipment such as transformers and switchgear. At the same time, we have established accident oil pools and oil storage facilities to meet the requirement of 100% oil discharge capacity for each piece of equipment, thereby preventing secondary disasters caused by oil leaks. In building the emergency response system, we are strengthening the management of fire access routes, ensuring that their widths meet the required standards, and conducting regular, comprehensive fire drills for all personnel to improve their emergency response capabilities.
The renovation project adopts a strategy of “prevention first, combining prevention and control,” integrating intelligent monitoring with physical protection measures to effectively reduce the incidence of fire accidents and ensure the safe and stable operation of the power system.
