Baden, Switzerland, January 10, 2008 – ABB won a $30-million contract from Emirates Aluminum Company (EMAL) to supply a 220kV Gas Insulated Substation, automation and protection systems for a new aluminum smelter near Abu Dhabi. The order was booked during the third quarter of 2007.

瑞士Baden1月10日消息——ABB从阿联酋铝业公司赢得了一份价值3千万美元的合同，为位于阿布扎比附近一个新的炼铝厂提供一个220KV气体绝缘变电站、自动化和保护系统。该订单是在2007年第三季度期间取得的。

The new smelter will be located in Al Taweelah, close to Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. Initial start-up capacity in 2010 will be 700,000 tons per year; when completed, the smelter will have a total annual capacity of 1.4 million tons, making it the largest single site aluminum smelter in the world. This smelter project represents Abu Dhabi's entry into the global aluminum industry.

该新炼铝厂将设在Al Taweelah，靠近阿拉伯联合酋长国的阿布扎比。到2010年最初启动的生产能力将是每年70万吨，一旦整体完工，冶炼厂的总产能将达每年140万吨，成为世界上最大的单个炼铝厂。该冶炼项目代表阿布扎比踏入了全球铝工业。 

ABB’s scope of supply during the first construction phase includes a 220kV Gas Insulated Substation to provide efficient, reliable power to the new smelter. ABB has more than 40 years of experience with High Voltage Gas Insulated Substations; these substations have a smaller footprint and lower operating and maintenance costs than traditional solutions. The delivery also includes System 800xA for process control, as well as the substation automation system.

ABB在首个建设期供应的范围包括一个22KV的气体绝缘变电站，为新冶炼厂提供高效、可靠的电力。ABB在高压气体绝缘变电站领域具有四十多年的经验，这些变电站所占空间更小，比传统解决方案所需的运营和维护成本更低。ABB交付的还包括用于过程控制以及变电站自动化系统的System 800xA 系统。
