What did we do?
We’ve upgraded the Benalla Zone Substation at the corner of Baddaginnie-Benalla Road and Midland Highway in Benalla.
Some of the equipment at the substation had reached the end of its service.
We’ve replaced these assets to extend their lifespan for another 50 years, so we can continue to supply power to households and businesses in the Benalla and Mansfield regions.
Why are zone substations important?
Zone substations play a critical role in the electricity network. They receive high-voltage electricity from the transmission network and reduce it down to lower voltage electricity, so it can be used in homes and businesses.
