To strengthen on-site support and project execution across the Netherlands, Protrafo has expanded its operational fleet with a fully electric Volkswagen ID. Buzz Cargo. The vehicle is deployed for site visits, installation support, commissioning assistance, and technical coordination activities.
Reliable mobility plays a key role in ensuring efficient project execution. By integrating an electric service vehicle into our daily operations, we improve flexibility, reduce response time, and align our mobility approach with the sustainable energy infrastructure projects we support.
The ID. Buzz Cargo supports transformer installation projects, inspections, and technical site coordination throughout the region. This investment reflects our commitment to operational efficiency, sustainability, and dependable on-site service for grid and renewable infrastructure projects.
Efficient project execution requires reliable mobility and direct on-site presence. The fully electric service vehicle enables Protrafo to respond quickly to installation sites, provide technical assistance during commissioning phases, and coordinate activities with contractors and grid operators. By combining operational flexibility with sustainable transport, we ensure consistent support across transformer and renewable infrastructure projects while reducing environmental impact in daily field operations.

Yes, Protrafo provides on-site diagnostics and repairs where possible, including thermal imaging, insulation tests, and minor component replacement. For complex repairs, the transformer may be transported to our partner facilities.
Repair lead times vary based on damage severity and parts availability. However, with our dedicated service team and stock of critical components, we can often provide rapid turnaround, including emergency interventions.
Transporting a transformer requires careful planning and handling to ensure safety and prevent damage. Depending on the size and type, transformers can be shipped fully assembled or in parts. Key steps include securing the unit on a reinforced pallet or skid, protecting components with transport covers, and using specialized lifting points. For larger units, Protrafo provides project-specific logistics, including route planning, crane coordination, and on-site delivery support across Europe.
