Excursion to the substation in Stendal
On 28.01.2025, a group of students and employees from Otto von Guericke University had the opportunity to visit the Stendal substation. During the two-hour tour, the participants gained interesting insights into the history of the site, current operations and future developments at the substation.
Key aspects of energy transmission and grid structure were discussed with employees on site. The tour of the various plant areas - including the switchgear, the automation and relay protection center and the transformers - was particularly exciting.
For the students, the visit offered the opportunity to experience theoretical content from the lectures in practice: Many of the components covered could not only be seen and explained, but some could also be inspected directly under the guidance of the specialist staff.
