Infrastructure maintenance
Maintenance of electricity grid infrastructure is essential in order to guarantee quality of service, with the aim of ensuring that grid reliability meets the very highest standards. The tools used to support maintenance activities are subject to continuous innovation, as regards identification of the most suitable interventions (MBI-Monitoring and Business Intelligence, a tool used to support decision-making), the scheduling and execution of operations (WFM – Work Force Management) and the adoption of modern aerial inspection techniques for the electricity grid.
~44,500 checks
at stations with various voltage levels in 2024
~230,000 KM
of overhead lines inspected with visual checks (on-site or helipad) in 2024
~112,600 KM
inspections of underground cables lines
~19,000 KM
of power lines where plant cutting was done to ensure the lines operate correctly and safely
All overhead lines
are inspected 3.2 times a year
We work continually to improve our ability to identify and optimise interventions on the grid; we use the best possible techniques to conduct checks based on innovative instruments and processes.
