Homs Governorate, Syria

ICC Energy DWC-LLC has completed construction of a new 400/230 kV transformation substation in Homs Governorate, the Ministry of Electricity confirmed this month, closing out a 24-month EPC contract on schedule.

The Ministry awarded the design-build-and-commission contract to ICC Energy in May 2020, at a value of 32 billion Syrian Pounds. Work began a week later, and the substation reached final successful commissioning after exact 24 months.

The finished substation steps power down from 400 kV to 230 kV through two 250 MVA transformers, backed by new high-voltage switchgear, protection and SCADA systems, and rehabilitated legacy equipment on site.

"The works were executed and duly accepted after passing all necessary tests, and they are currently operating efficiently within the electrical grid."

— Ministry of Electricity, Syrian Arab Republic

The Homs substation is ICC Energy's second major 400/230 kV transmission project in Syria, following a similar substation delivered in Aleppo.

Homs Governorate, Syria — ICC Energy DWC-LLC Project Story A Landmark in Homs How the Homs 400/230 kV Substation Came Together ICC ICC Energy DWC-LLC Homs Governorate, Syria Some infrastructure projects are best told through announcements and milestones. Others are better understood through the work itself — the studies, the site mobilization, the months of cabling and concrete that turn a design on paper into a live piece of the grid. The Homs 400/230 kV Transformation Substation, delivered by ICC Energy DWC-LLC for Syria's Ministry of Electricity, is a project worth telling that second way. Before a Single Foundation Was Poured Long before excavators arrived on site in Homs Governorate, the project existed only as a set of engineering questions. How much load would the substation need to carry, and how would power flow through it under normal and fault conditions? What would happen, electrically, if something failed? How should protection systems...
