Spain's Red Eléctrica commissions 220 kV Villatoro substation in Burgos

en.Wedoany.com Reported - Spain's Red Eléctrica has completed and commissioned the new 220 kV Villatoro substation within the municipality of Burgos, aiming to improve the reliability of electricity supply for local residents and businesses by supporting the distribution network.

The substation is part of the infrastructure for several development projects planned in the city of Burgos, where strengthening the electricity supply is seen as a key measure to boost local economic activity, industrial development, job creation, and population stability in the Castile and León region. The new substation was built using indoor gas-insulated (GIS) technology, which occupies a smaller footprint and is enclosed within a building to reduce visual impact and better integrate into the surrounding environment.

The total investment for the project amounts to €7.4 million, which also includes the connection works linking the new substation to the Villalbilla-T. Ayala 220 kV transmission line. These works have been included in the current electricity planning and are listed among the financeable projects under the European Union's NextGenerationEU Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan.
