The path from energy to customer

The electric energy reaches consumers' homes through the distribution network managed by E-REDES.

It is through the transmission and distribution network that energy suppliers bring electricity to the homes of their consumers.E-REDES is responsible for operating those networks.

The electricity distribution network has been reinforced and upgraded to respond to new demands, such as demographic growth and the consequent increase in consumption. It consists of overhead lines and underground cables of high, medium and low voltage, always guaranteeing the necessary levels of quality and minimizing network losses.

As fundamental infrastructures of the network, we also have substations, junction boxes and transformers, and public lighting installations.

Electricity metering
E-REDES is responsible for measuring electrical energy consumption, through meters placed at the customers' premises. Data is collected manually, by providing readings or by specialized technicians, or automatically through intelligent meters. These are provided to each of the market agents for invoicing and collection. They are used for other purposes too, such as: monitoring consumption profiles, identifying anomalies and enabling swifter action to restore electricity.
