The reduction of losses in 2015 was made possible as a result of organizational and technological activities of the Program to decrease electric energy losses in power grids of IDGC of Centre.
Work on the reduction of losses in the grids is one of the priorities of the company. To do this, IDGC of Centre every year approves the Program of measures to reduce electricity losses, implements new technologies, while reconstructing new energy saving equipment is applied. In addition, the AMR system (automated information and measuring system of commercial power metering) gets improved and other measures are taken aimed at reducing losses and improving the reliability of electricity supply to consumers.
