  • Schneider Electric entered a collaboration with Southern California Edison to deploy SF6-free, gas-insulated switchgear in utility substations.
  • Technology uses pure air and vacuum instead of SF6; expected to help double capacity within existing substation footprints.
  • First deployments planned at SCE’s Great Lakes substation in Antelope Valley, California, and Running Springs substation in the San Bernardino Mountains.
  • Installations are scheduled to begin in 2027; aims to speed customer connections while supporting reliable, affordable service.
