Summary sheet
Reinforcement and extension of the electricity sub transmission and distribution network in 4 Spanish regions. The project comprises a large number of geographically dispersed schemes on the promoter’s distribution networks (220 KV to low tension). The project is part of the promoter’s 2006-2008 ongoing capital spending programme in electricity distribution facilities and includes the study, design, supply, erection and commissioning of substations, overhead lines, underground cables, meters, as well as improvements of regional network operation and control centres.
The project will increase capacity to cater for growing electricity demand, improve the quality and reliability of supply, reduce technical losses and fulfil legal and regulatory requirements.
A small portion of schemes fall under Annex I and Annex II of the EU Environmental Directive and is subject to Environmental Impact Assessment. The promoter submits the investment proposals on a regular basis to the competent authorities.
The investments are subject to Procurement Directive 2004/17/EC. The promoter has confirmed that procurement procedures applied to the project will be in line with the directive’s requirements, including regular publications in the Official Journal of the EU and the National Official Journal (BOE).
