OREANDA-NEWS. STG PJSC won the tender and signed a contract for construction of new transmission lines to ensure 450 MW electrical power capacity of new generation in Yaroslavl oblast - Yaroslavl (Huadian-Teninskaya) Combined Cycle Power Plant. The works were ordered by the branch of FGS UES OJSC - MES Center.

STG will construct two double-circuit overhead transmission lines of 220 kV with total length of 45.3 km. The new overhead lines will go from the Huadian-Teninskaya Combined Cycle Power Plant to two existing power transmission lines - Yaroslavskaya Substation - Tveritskaya Substation and Yaroslavskaya Substation - Tutaev Substation. Therefore, the builders will connect new lines to the existing ones, and the energy will be able to reach the above substations from the new combined cycle power plant, and thereafter, to be transmitted to the regional power energy system up to the end consumers.

Within the project STG will reconstruct 220 kV substations Yaroslavskaya, Tveritskaya, Tutaev. Moreover, power equipment will be modernized at the facilities, new microprocessor-based relay protection equipment and automation devices will be assembled.

The work completion is scheduled for June 2015.

Fulfillment of this project will resolve the problem of energy shortage in the region, providing technological opportunities for economic development and creation of new jobs.
