Transmission Network

The transmission network is the backbone of the Authority's system, interconnecting the power stations with the load centres.

Transmission system development works that were completed in 2007 increased reliability and raised the installed capacity of the transmission substations by 111MVA.

The table below gives an analysis of the elements comprising the EAC Transmission Network.
