Electric grid facilities are aging rapidly. The wear level reaches almost 70%, with 60% of the energy losses in the transmission falls on a wire. An equal challenge is the low mechanical strength of the wires that leads to the cliffs on power lines and reduces the quality of electricity supply.

According to over the 11 years of observation of transmission lines, more than half technology failures in the power grid falls on wires. Therefore, improving the reliability of the wires will significantly increase the reliability of networks.

 

Advantages of new material for power transmission line:

 

Energy efficiency::

Increasing the capacity of the high voltage wires in 1,5 -2 times.
Savings due to the additional transmission capacity 150 – 250 mln. rub. perline in year

 

Energy saving:

Reduction of lossesof transmissionlinesup to30%
Savings due to lower losses up to 98 thousand rubles per 1 km of line per year.
