Additional Financing Norte Grande Electricity Transmission Program

closed

The main objective of the Project is to guarantee the coverage of the increasing power demand and the security of the Argentinean Interconnection System (SADI), with the object of contributing to the continuous development of the productive sectors and elevating the standard of life of the population, by rationally making use of the available generation resources of the country. The specific objectives are: i) to interconnect the electrical systems of the Northeast and Northwest Argentinean regions (NOA ¿ NEA) by using a line of extra high tension (LEAT 500kV and associated Transformation Stations) so it can permit and promote the energy exchange between both regions, improving the prices and increasing the quality and security of the electrical provision, in particular for the macro region of Norte Grande; and ii) to consolidate and expand the regional communication nets (high and med tension lines smaller than 500kV with its respective associated transformation stations), laying the foundations for the productive and social development through giving solution to the problems that attempt against the security and reliability of these systems.
