In total, during the year IDGC of Centre plans to carry out comprehensive repair of 185 substations of 35-110 kV, renovate 4,519 transformer substations of 0.4-10 kV and about 16.5 km of overhead and cable power lines of 0.4-110 kV, clear 11,297 hectares and extend 2,821 hectares of ROWs along overhead lines. It is planned to spend about 1.95 billion rubles on the repair campaign.
Among the large and important facilities, at which this year the comprehensive overhaul will be conducted, are the 110/10 KV Substations "Poultry" and "North" in the Belgorod region, "Polpinskaya" and "Lopandino" in the Bryansk region, "Progress" and "Compressor" in the Kursk region, "Yartsevo-1" in the Smolensk region; the 110/35/10 kV Substations "South" in the Kostroma region, "Komsomolskaya" and "Algasovskaya" in the Tambov region; the 110/6 kV Substations "Energoremont" in the Bryansk region, "North" and "West" in the Yaroslavl region; the Tver 110/35/10 kV Substations Red Hill and 110/10 kV "NPS Torzhok".
The Substation "Poultry" supplies electricity to the Poultry Processing Plant "Prioskolie" and sites for fattening birds in Novy Oskol district of the Belgorod region. Here the work has already been completed. The Substation "North" is the main power source for the international airport "Belgorod", the industrial park "North" and the bakery "Golden Spike". The power centre "Polpinskaya" feeds OJSC "Bryansk factory of steel structures and technological equipment", which produces equipment for the needs of the oil and gas industry, the Substation "Lopandino" - Lopandinsky Sugar Factory. One of the biggest consumers of the Substation "Energoremont" is the plant "Turboremont", specializing in the manufacture of spare parts and repair of components of gas compressor units for the needs of PJSC "Gazprom".
The Kursk Substations "Progress" and "Compressor" provide electricity to equipment of gas compressor stations of main gas pipelines, feeding the "blue fuel" in the neighbouring Belgorod, Orel and Bryansk regions, as well as through Ukraine to Western Europe. The Smolensk Substation "Yartsevo-1" supplies electricity to PJSC "Yartsevo Foundry" and one of the largest enterprises in the domestic textile industry - Yartsevo Cotton Mill.
The Substation "South" is the main centre of power for consumers of Zavolzhsky district on the Kostroma region, the Substations "Komsomolskaya" and "Algasovskaya" feed a total of 124 settlements of the Tambov region, where more than 30 thousand people reside. The Substation "North" is one of the main centres of power of Yaroslavl, and "West" - Rybinsk, the second largest city of the Yaroslavl region. The Tver Substation "Red Hill" provides the regional transit of electricity with the neighbouring Yaroslavl region, and the centre of power "NPS Torzhok" feeds an oil pumping station for the transit of oil through the territory of Russia.
The repair program in 2016 also provides for comprehensive overhaul of key for regional power systems overhead lines in the branches of "Orelenergo", "Tambovenergo" and "Tverenergo". In the Orel region work will be performed on the 110 kV overhead lines "Mtsensk-Bolkhov-1", providing electricity to Bolkhovsky district, where the main agricultural and livestock enterprises of the region are located, and "Livny - Upper II", through which electricity between the Orel and Livensky power centres is transited. Power engineers of the Tambov branch of IDGC of Centre will repair the line "Tambov CHP-Tambov №4 II circuit" and "Shakhovskaya 1", connecting generating facilities and Federal Grid Company. In the Tver region repair of 106.9 km of 110 kV overhead lines is scheduled, providing energy to a passing through the territory of the region section of the October Railway.
