Orelenergo exceeded the plan of clearing ROWs of power lines in the first half of the year

IDGC of Centre - Orelenergo division summed up the results of work on clearing and extension of ROWs of overhead power lines (Conductors) for six months of 2016.

During this period the energy company cleared 352.1 hectares of ROWs that exceeds the planned figures by 2.4%. 3.6 million rubles were spent for this purpose. In the second half of 2016 Orelenergo plans to carry out clearing and extension of 381.1 hectares of ROWs along overhead lines.

Clearing and extension of ROWs along power lines are carried out in order to prevent breakage of wires of overhead lines due to falling trees on them as a result of adverse weather conditions (winds, snow, etc.), for the maintenance of fire safety on ROWs of overhead lines and safe operation of power lines.

"The implementation of the set of the planned activities at the substation "Algasovskaya" ensures the protection and smooth operation of electrical equipment, the reliability and stability of electricity supply to residents of Morshansky district at low temperatures," stresses First Deputy Director - Chief Engineer of Tambovenergo Igor Polyakov.
