Investment programme aiming at reinforcing and modernising the electricity distribution network in Estonia by connecting new supply points, improving overall reliability and safety, as well as introducing smart meter infrastructure.
The project will promote the modernisation and the development of the electricity distribution infrastructures in Estonia. The project will enable Eesti Energia to maintain the network’s ability to supply the existing demand, to connect new system users, to improve the quality and the reliability of supply, and to reduce network losses.
