EL_07 / Rehabilitation of 400 kV OHL Mukacheve (UA) – V.Kapusany (SK)

Brief project description

Reconstruction and upgrading of existing OHL between Slovakia and Ukraine  and related substations will increase the transmission capacity between the Slovak and Ukrainian power systems. The project will prepare the way for integration of  power systems of Ukraine and Moldova into the European electricity market.

Implementation of the project will improve system stability in the given region. Eliminating the existing restrictions on power flows between the Slovak and Ukrainian power systems on the one hand, and the Hungarian and Romanian and Ukrainian power systems on the other will affect the pricing and conditions of the European electricity market.
