The Big Picture: Part II
As we outlined in our most recent post, TransGard has always worked to expand solutions to prevent animals from entering electrical substations. This holds true for threats from the air as well from the ground.
Bird activity at industrial sites and substations poses serious risks: equipment damage, flashovers, contamination, regulatory fines, and health threats like viruses and parasites contained in dried bird droppings. A full spectrum mitigation strategy against birds integrates a range of deterrents to create an environment that birds actively avoid, without harm to the birds or disruption to operations.
