SF6 Academy

 

 

SF6 gas has become a hot topic for governments around the world because of its high global warming potential.  Consequently, controlling SF6 emissions is paramount.  The SF6 Academy was founded to establish and teach best practices in SF6 handling and management.

 

What is it?

 

The evolution of SF6 switchgear maintenance has occurred rapidly resulting in different standards for SF6 handling throughout the T&D industry. Maintaining an up-to-date and systematic approach to SF6 switchgear maintenance is a constant challenge. What if you could assemble experts from across the spectrum of SF6 gas life cycle management and gleam insights into best practices?  What if you could see and experience the equipment needed in SF6-insulated switchgear maintenance?  This type of interactive exchange is exactly what the SF6 Academy offers.
