By reviewing both design and material choices, Holtab has developed a new beam system for the floors of its technical buildings. The result is a lighter, stronger and more flexible solution that simplifies installation and work inside the station.

“Several departments have been involved in developing our technical buildings, and we are proud of what we have achieved together,” says Johan Malcolmsson, Production Engineer at Holtab.

With the EU’s new ban on SF₆ gas in switchgear coming into force in 2026, Holtab has developed a new generation of secondary substations prepared for SF₆-free switchgear. These substations have undergone rigorous safety testing with top results.

“We are proud to have developed a solution that delivers the highest level of personal safety,” says Peter Borgström, Development Manager at Holtab.

Holtab is launching an updated version of its metering cubicle for high-voltage metering at 12 and 24 kV.

“The new cubicle is not only more powerful – it is also easier to work with, thanks to a smarter design,” says Gordon Gunnarsson, Technical Manager at Holtab.

Holtab has now completed its first delivery of a secondary substation using a fully electrified transport solution. Our customer Eviny received the station, destined for their EV charging site in Linköping, transported 250 km by electric truck.

“Together with the haulier and the customer, we made this possible. We are all part of the energy transition,” says Holtab’s Chief Procurement Officer, Katarina Hansell.

At Holtab, we’re expanding our offering with a new type of indoor-accessible station. The technical building is a standardized product with a short delivery time.

“These are smaller buildings that are ideal for lighter equipment,” says Linus Olofsson, Business Support at Holtab.

Data-driven analysis and modern technology are important tools for energy efficiency. Holtab uses the ABB Ability Energy Manager cloud system to not only achieve its own sustainability goals, but also to help customers optimise their energy consumption.

The demand for low voltage switchgear is high, and each customer has their own unique requirements. Holtab currently offers two different products. In this article, we describe the main differences between the company’s classic CMS switchgear and the new HMS servicing switchgear.
