Crews put out fire at electrical substation in Kidderminster

Tristan Harris 30th Apr, 2025

A FIRE broke out in an electrical substation in The Patios, Kidderminster, at 3.26pm yesterday (Tuesday).

Two Hereford and Worcester Fire and Rescue Service crews – one each from Wyre Forest and Droitwich Fire Stations – were sent to the scene.

They used a CO2 extinguisher and, once the blaze was out, a thermal imaging camera was used to check for hotspots.

The area was cordoned off and the substation was isolated by National Grid.

There were no casualties and no other emergency services were needed.

The incident was dealt with by 4.48pm.
