E-REDES installs new transformer substation in Celorico de Basto

An investment of 85,000 euros will strengthen the quality of service in the municipality.

E-REDES has installed a new transformer substation (PTD) in the parish of Agilde in the municipality of Celorico de Basto.

The infrastructures with a combined power of 100 kVA and 600-meter-long medium voltage (MV) branches, which are already in operation, were inaugurated on January 9 in the presence of José Peixoto Lima, Mayor of Celorico de Basto, Francisco Campilho and Miguel Pinto, representatives of E-REDES, Luís Lemos Lopes, President of the Agilde Parish Council, and several mayors from parishes in the municipality.

The low voltage (LV) network in the area was reinforced over an approximate length of 600 meters, resulting in better network management.

The work, which represented an investment of around 85,000 euros, will strengthen the quality of service in the area, provide the network with greater capacity and resilience, and guarantee the availability of power to meet new electricity demands for the area in question.

For E-REDES, this procedure in close collaboration with the municipality of Esposende is part of its policy of optimizing quality of service and energy efficiency, resulting from the company's commitment to the municipality.
