OREANDA-NEWS. JSC “Sverdlovenergo” entered into the contract for maintenance of project works for construction of “Prachechnaya” substation in Nizhni Tagil.

For the first time question considering necessity to construct new substation in Nizhni Tagil to supply with power central part of the city was brought to the light five years ago. That time it became clear that substation “Krasny Kamen” reached its load pick. But it took not so long to solve this problem because of reduction of size of power consumption and therefore load decrease at the substation “Krasny Kamen”, so in fact, problem was solved by itself. For the second time this problem came to light in the end of 90-ies when industrial production as well as small and medium started to develop in Nizhni Tagil. Capacity deficiency increased in no time (it took only two years) and for the present moment it equals to 50 MW.

This year substation “Prirechnaya” was included into the investment program of Sverdlovenergo. According to the plan, investment volume should reach 158 mn rbl this year.
