Transformer substations

Craftsmanship combined with experience and pioneering technology over many decades. Prefab transformer substations are one of Alfen's specialities. We built the first transformer substation in the 1960s, and every day we have been working hard to equip all of them with the latest technology and innovative solutions ever since. Alfen's transformer substations represent tailor-made solutions. They are suitable for all situations and all types of users.
