<p><b>Enel Global Infrastructure &amp; Networks</b> is looking for a new design concept for a prefabricated secondary substation, which must have innovative features in design, materials, and construction, incorporating the principles of sustainability and, in particular, a circular by design approach. The new design must ensure, both in the technical characteristics and in those of the product, <b>the complete observance of the technical and safety regulations currently enforced for its use and installation</b>, as well as consider the minimum dimensions to house all the equipment normally found inside.</p><p> </p><p><b>OVERVIEW</b> </p><p>Secondary substations constitute electrical infrastructures dedicated to the protection of medium voltage (MV) and low voltage (LV) electricity grid components and accessed by Enel&#39;s expert staff. The described Challenge aims to identify an innovative architectural design of a street level secondary substation that utilizes sustainable materials and improves the integration of the structure in rural and urban contexts, while retaining existing functionality.</p><p> </p><p>Enel is fully committed to the energy transition with a particular focus on decarbonization of its business model. Enel considers environmental sustainability as a priority to be embedded in all the Group&#39;s businesses and considers, among other things, the circular economy as a strategic driver to pursue this transition and achieve its commitment. Enel&#39;s vision of circular economy is not limited to materials recycling, but extends to business activities along the entire value chain involving its ecosystem, starting from the design and procurement phases up to those of production and end-of-life management: to be truly effective this approach, must be applied from the design stage and must guide the design of the new prefabricated secondary substations.</p><p> </p><p>This Challenge provides contribution to the following <b>Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)</b>:</p><ul><li>SDG 8: Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all</li><li>SDG 9: Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation</li><li>SDG 11: Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable</li><li>SDG 12: Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns</li></ul><p> </p><p><i>- Register now to start solving this Challenge!

<p>A wildfire is a destructive and uncontrolled fire in an area of combustible vegetation. Causes of wildfire include lightning, human carelessness (e.g. campfires, fireworks, smoldering cigarettes), and burning debris. Recently, climate change and drought have contributed to an increasing number of wildfires, thus, Enel Green Power is searching for a technology to be installed upon renewable power plant properties, which can provide ultra-early detection of these events.</p><p> </p><p><i>This Theoretical Challenge requires only a written proposal.</i></p><p> </p><p><b>OVERVIEW </b></p><p>The environmental challenges the world faces nowadays have never been greater and more complex. Global areas covered by forests and urban woodlands are threatened by natural disasters that have increased dramatically during the last decades, in terms of both frequency and magnitude. Large-scale forest fires are one of the most harmful natural hazards affecting climate change and life around the world. Thus, to minimize their impacts on people and nature, the adoption of well-planned and closely coordinated effective prevention, early warning, and response approaches are necessary.</p><p><br></p><p>In this scenario we would like to leverage on the presence of renewable power plants to provide ultra-early fire detection solutions for public and private forests. The systems -to be installed in the power plants’ areas- should also be able to detect fire within the power plant area as well as the surrounding areas.</p><p><br></p><p>This Challenge provides contribution to the following <b>Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)</b>:</p><ul><li>SDG 9: Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation</li><li>SDG 11: Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable</li><li>SDG 15: Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss</li></ul><p><br></p><p><i>- Register now to start solving this Challenge!
