IDGC of Centre summed up the results of the implementation of the repair program for five months. The company is performing a number of key events of the document ahead of schedule. Major repairs of power transformers were carried out at 13 substations of 35-110 kV. 1,697 transformer substations of 0.4/6-10 kV and 4,790 kilometres of 0.4-110 kV overhead and cable power lines were repaired, which is 104% and 110% of the plan on an accrual basis, respectively. A total of 4,707 hectares of ROWs of overhead lines were cleared (113% of the planned figures on an accrual basis). To implement these activities, 807 million rubles were allocated.
The main activities of the repair program started after the end of the next autumn-winter period, when it becomes possible to decommission the equipment in need of repairs, and are completed by the end of September. Their main volume is in the summer. According to the plan, in the course of 2018, IDGC of Centre will overhaul equipment at 745 substations of 35-110 kV, overhaul 4,294 transformer substations and 14,4 thousand kilometres of overhead power lines (Conductors) of 0.4-110 kV. 11.3 thousand hectares of ROWs of overhead lines of 0,4-110 kV will be cleared of wood and shrub vegetation.
The largest number of substations of 35-110 kV, according to the plan, will be covered by repairs in the branches of Voronezhenergo (150) and Bryanskenergo (123). The largest volume of overhaul of 0.4-110 kV overhead lines is planned in the branches of Belgorodenergo and Kurskenergo (2.2 thousand km and 2.1 thousand km).
Among the large and significant facilities, where major repairs will be done - the 110 kV substations "Dormashevskaya" and "Zapadnaya" in the Bryansk region, "Alekseevka" in the Belgorod region, "Terbuny" and "Gorokhovskaya" in the Lipetsk region, "Malinovskaya" in the Tambov region, "Left Bank" in the Yaroslavl region.
The Belgorod substation "Alekseevka" feeds about 70,000 consumers, including the town of Alekseevka and the city-forming enterprise of GC "Efko", which is one of the three largest companies in the Russian agribusiness sector, a poultry farm, livestock complexes. To date, the first stage of the work has been completed.
The substation "Dormashevskaya" in Bryansk supplies electricity to one of the oldest machine-building enterprises in Russia, the plant "Bryansk Arsenal" (part of the joint venture of Russian Machines and Terex Corporation "RM-Terex"), LLC "NPF Elektroapparat" and a number of social facilities. Work at this power facility is scheduled to be completed in August. The completion of repairs at the "Zapadnaya" feeding centre in Klintsy, which provides power to social infrastructure facilities, a dairy plant, a garment factory and a gas filling station, is scheduled for July.
"Malinovskaya" is one of the main feeding centres of the Tambov region. It supplies electricity to 85 settlements, 32 hospitals, 43 schools and kindergartens, life support facilities. Among its large consumers is the oil pumping station "Malinovka", which is part of the structure of OJSC "Druzhba Trunk Oil Pipelines", and the repair completion date for this substation is September.
The substation "Left Bank" feeds consumers of the left-bank part of the second largest city of the Yaroslavl region - Rybinsk, factories of roofing materials and plastic products. Here work will be completed in August. The Lipetsk substations "Gorokhovskaya" and "Terbuny" feed a total of 43 settlements, including a city of regional subordination - Zadonsk, more than 17 thousand people, seven schools, ten kindergartens and three hospitals. The planned repair of transformers has already been completed at the first power facility, the work will be carried out at the second one during July.
Also, in 2018 IDGC of Centre plans to repair significant overhead power lines for regional power systems. Power engineers of the Tver branch of the company, in particular, has already completed work at the overhead lines (Conductors) "CHPP-3 Unit 2-Kalininskaya" and CHP-3-1TR-Kalininskaya", which are part of the Tver City Ring, and in August they will repair the 110 kV Conductor "Nelidovo-Erokhino", involved in the power supply of an oil pumping station of the federal oil transit. In the branch "Smolenskenergo" in August repairs will be completed at the 110 kV Conductor "Safonovo-Liteinaya", which is involved in the power supply of OJSC "Yartsevsky Foundry", the leading enterprise in the region for production of cast iron.
Specialists of the branch "Orelenergo" before the beginning of the autumn-winter period will carry out a comprehensive overhaul at the 110 kV Conductor "Livni - Dolgoye No. 1" in Dolzhansky district. The line feeds the 10/35/10 kV substation "Dolgoye", which provides electricity to the region’s consumers, including the Dolzhansky central district hospital and the enterprise of the large regional agricultural holding "Yunost". In the Tambov region until September, the 110 kV overhead line "Kotovskaya-Uvarovskaya circuit I, II" will be repaired, which feeds the 110 kV substation "Uvarovskaya", which supplies electricity to consumers of three districts at once - Uvarovsky, Muchkapsky and Zherdevsky.
The implementation of the repair program of IDGC of Centre will ensure the quality and reliability of electricity supply to consumers in 11 constituents of the Central Federal District, and will largely contribute to the smooth and stable operation of the company’s electric grid complex in these regions during the period of the autumn-winter maximum of loads.
