About 13 kilometres of 10 kV overhead lines will be constructed by specialists of IDGC of Centre - Tverenergo division in 2017 to meet the needs of the M-11 Moscow-St. Petersburg high-speed road.
New power lines will connect power centres of the Tver branch of IDGC of Centre and power installations of the high-speed federal highway M-11 in Bologovsky district of the Tver region. At present, the project documentation has already been developed, according to which more than 10 km of overhead lines equipped with reclosers will be constructed.
