Roman Starovoit of Kursk region held a working meeting in Moscow with Rosseti Center and Rosseti Center and General Manager Igor Makovskiy of the Volga Region. During the dialogue, the region’s grid complex was discussed to prepare for the upcoming heating season, grid asset integration issues, and the implementation of other measures aimed at improving the reliability and quality of power supply to consumers.
As Igor Makovsky said, Kursk power engineers have completed all the preparation phases for the autumn and winter of 2021-2022. The overhaul of 314 substations and 424 kilometers of 0.4-110kV overhead lines was carried out, 1,1964 insulators were replaced, and 742 hectares of trees and shrubs were cleaned up.
Kurskenergo has 130 fully equipped emergency rescuers, including experts who are preparing to travel to neighboring areas within the company's service area, and 183 vehicles. There are 107 emergency power supplies with a total capacity of 1583 kilowatts.
"The implementation of the high-tech facility construction project in the Kursk region has enabled us to achieve significant results in improving the reliability of the grid infrastructure. In the past year, the number of technical violations has been reduced by 69.5%. The average outage time has been reduced by 18.4%. At the same time, we are also actively working in other areas-we are modernizing the outdoor lighting system and providing grid-connected support services. All these actions are aimed at improving the quality of work and the availability of the grid complex ," Igor Markowski emphasized.
"Reliable and uninterrupted power supply is the key to the implementation of regional infrastructure projects and the stable operation of industry and agriculture. Therefore, it is important for us to improve the emergency response efficiency of the grid complex and prepare for the winter. "Efficient implementation as planned. I thank Rossetti for the work he has done in this area," said Roman Starowot.
