The invention provides an intelligent box-type substation characterized by effective heat dissipation. The intelligent box-type substation comprises a base, an exhaust device, a frame body, cooling devices, a cover plate device and a monitoring device. First support pillars and a second support pillar are arranged on the base. The frame body is provided with a first through hole, second through holes, third through holes and fourth through holes. The exhaust device comprises an exhaust pipe, a fan, a sponge block, a fixing block and fasteners. Each cooling device comprises a first support plate, a first water tank, a first water output pipe, a first valve, a circulating pipe, a fixing rod, a second water outlet pipe, a second water tank and a second support plate. The cover plate device comprises a cover plate, a bending part, support rods, a cross rod, a control box, an antenna and horizontal rods. The monitoring device comprises a third support plate, a baffle plate, a humidity sensor, a temperature sensor, a noise sensor and a rectangular block. The internal environment parameters of the substation can be monitored in real time and judgment can be made according to the specific parameter information, so that the internal environment parameters of the substation can be made to be more suitable for work of electric devices in the substation.
