UFD, the electricity distribution company of Naturgy, is set to invest around 170,000 euros in updates and improvement work on medium- and low-voltage electricity installations in Coles (Ourense). More specifically, the company will begin construction work next week on a 960-metre underground medium-voltage power line on the Boncomenzo site in the parish of Gustei. Furthermore, the distribution company will bring a new 160KVA pre-built transformer shed fitted with tele-management technology into service, as well as an underground low-voltage network.
The work will resolve the current brownout problems in the area and improve the quality of service it provides to its customers.
Every year, UFD includes actions and initiatives in its investment plan to strengthen electricity supply infrastructure and improve the electricity distribution network, especially in rural areas where quality of service needs to be improved, thus contributing to the economic development of these areas and improving quality of life.
