This article comprehensively analyzes the functions, appearance, and advantages of
Landscape Substation. Its functions include power transmission distribution, equipment protection, etc; The appearance blends with the natural environment and can be customized in various styles; The advantages include land saving, green environmental protection, intelligent management, and enhancing the city's image. Landscape substations provide new ideas for urban power and aesthetic development.
1、 Introduction
The urbanization process is accelerating, and cities have higher requirements for electricity supply and landscape aesthetics. Traditional substations occupy a large area, have a monotonous appearance, and are not in harmony with the urban environment. Landscape substations have emerged to meet the demand for electricity and seamlessly integrate with the urban landscape, becoming a beautiful scenery line in the city.
2、 The function of landscape substation
（1） Power transmission and distribution
As a key part of the urban power grid, landscape substations convert high-voltage electricity into low-voltage electricity and distribute it to various power consumption points. They are the "heart" of the urban power system, ensuring stable power transmission and reasonable distribution through internal equipment.
（2） Equipment protection
Equipped with comprehensive protective devices, real-time monitoring and protection of substation equipment. Quickly act in case of malfunction, cut off the faulty circuit, prevent the fault from expanding, and ensure the safe and stable operation of the power system.
（3） Reactive power compensation
Install reactive power compensation devices to automatically adjust reactive power output according to power system requirements, improve power factor, reduce energy loss, and enhance power transmission efficiency.
3、 Appearance of Landscape Substation
（1） Integration with the natural environment
Design considers coordination with the surrounding natural environment. In parks, scenic areas, and other places, rockeries, pavilions, and other landscape forms can be designed to complement the surrounding green plants and mountains.
（2） Diversified styles
The exterior design can be customized according to the characteristics of the city and planning needs. In historical and cultural areas, it can be designed in ancient architectural styles that are quaint and elegant; In modern cities, geometric shapes with simple and smooth lines and a strong sense of technology can be designed.
（3） Advertising medium
The above ground part is an advertising lightbox or other landscape style box, and public welfare and commercial advertisements can be arranged on both sides to add vitality and bring economic benefits.
4、 Advantages of Landscape Substation
（1） Save land occupation
Adopting modular design, the core components are compactly integrated into the box, saving a lot of land resources compared to traditional substations. For example, a certain residential area saved about 30% of land area after adopting a landscape substation.
（2） Green and environmentally friendly
Pay attention to energy conservation and environmental protection, select high-efficiency energy-saving transformers, and use reactive power compensation technology to reduce energy loss. Adopting buried or semi buried design to reduce noise and electromagnetic radiation interference.
（3） Intelligent management
Equipped with advanced intelligent monitoring system, real-time collection of key parameters, triggering alarms and initiating protective measures in case of abnormalities, and cutting off faulty circuits. It can interact with smart grid information to achieve energy scheduling and dynamic management.
（4） Enhance the image of the city
Integrating power facilities with urban landscapes to meet electricity demand while enhancing urban aesthetics and functionality. In commercial districts, it can be customized according to style to become a unique cultural landscape.
5、 Conclusion
Landscape substations have unique functions, beautiful appearance, and significant advantages, and play an important role in the construction of modern urban power grids. It solves the problem of coordination between outdoor power distribution equipment and the environment, adding beauty to the city and achieving harmonious coexistence of power facilities and urban environment. With the advancement of technology and cost reduction, it will be applied and promoted in more cities in the future, injecting new vitality into urban development. We look forward to its continuous innovation and improvement, making greater contributions to the sustainable development of the city.
