Transformador - Mollina, Málaga, España - Historic Transformer Sub-Stations Buildings on Waymarking.com

"Los transformadores son elementos eléctricos cruciales para la distribución y el aprovechamiento doméstico de la energía eléctrica. Los transformadores aumentan o disminuyen la tensión de una corriente alterna, pero teóricamente no cambian su potencia.

Los transformadores eléctricos se encontraban alojados en el interior de pequeñas edificaciones, distribuidas por distintos lugares de las ciudades. Estas singulares e importantes instalaciones formaban parte del paisaje rural y urbano y era frecuente encontrarlas adosadas a edificios, en esquinas, plazas, cruces de carreteras, etc.

Los viejos transformadores que van quedando fuera de servicio están condenados al derribo o a la ruina lenta. Al menos, no todos.
La empresa les ha encontrado una utilidad. En colaboración con una organización ecologista, tiene en marcha un programa de transformación de estas pequeñas edificaciones en refugios para insectos, para murciélagos y para especies de aves, preferentemente amenazadas. El primero de estos antiguos transformadores rehabilitados como soporte ecológico en el sur de Lugo está en las proximidades de la presa de Belesar.

"Transformers are crucial electrical elements for the distribution and domestic use of electrical energy. Transformers increase or decrease the voltage of an alternating current, but theoretically they do not change its power.

The electrical transformers were housed inside small buildings, distributed throughout different places in the cities. These unique and important installations were part of the rural and urban landscape and were often found attached to buildings, on corners, squares, road intersections, etc.

Old transformers that are left out of service are condemned to demolition or slow ruin. At least, not all.
The company has found a use for them. In collaboration with an environmental organization, it has a program underway to transform these small buildings into refuges for insects, bats and bird species, preferably threatened. The first of these old transformers rehabilitated as ecological support in the south of Lugo is near the Belesar dam.
