## Modernizing France’s National Distribution Network for Decentralized Energy

Enedis, which manages over 1.4 million kilometers of medium- and low-voltage electrical networks across mainland France, announced the milestone agreement on September 28, 2026. The contract ensures a secure supply of advanced transformers through 2030 to support surging electrification demands from industrial heat pumps, widespread electric mobility hubs, and localized rooftop solar installations.

The framework includes medium-power substation transformers (up to 40 MVA at 63 kV/20 kV) and high-density pad-mounted distribution transformers engineered for minimal no-load losses and enhanced overload resilience during summer heatwaves.

## Biodegradable Ester Fluids and Smart Digital Asset Health

A significant portion of the transformer fleet will utilize biodegradable synthetic and natural ester dielectric fluids instead of conventional mineral oil, providing superior fire safety ratings (K-class) and zero environmental persistence in sensitive water protection zones.

Each primary substation transformer will be delivered equipped with Hitachi Energy’s CoreTec digital monitoring package, featuring fiber-optic winding temperature probes, online dissolved gas analysis (DGA), and dynamic loading software compatible with Enedis’s automated grid operating platform.

## Securing European Supply Chain Resilience and Decarbonization

Units will be manufactured across Hitachi Energy’s European transformer manufacturing facilities, maximizing local European supply chains and utilizing low-carbon electrical steel and recycled copper conductors to minimize embodied lifecycle carbon emissions.

Enedis highlighted that the multi-year framework guarantees volume allocation during a period of acute global transformer shortages, ensuring France’s transition to net-zero power distribution remains on track.
