2 x 110 kV Power Line between Alibunar Substation and Košava Switchyard

The construction of the 2×110 kV power line between Alibunar Substation and Košava Switchyard was carried out in 2018-2019 in South Banat District, Izbište and Uljma residential areas, Vršac, under investor Prime General Constructions doo Beograd / EMS, funded by MK Fintel Wind a.d. Beograd. It connects Košava Wind Farm to the transmission system.

During one construction season, 7.7 km of the new power line were built. In total, 34 new steel lattice barrel-shaped towers were built.

Electrical installation works were also executed in the entire section, that is, equipping of the system with 3x SRPS N.C1.351-240/40- Al/Steel conductor from Košava Switchyard to the existing tower no. 154 DV 151/3. In the first phase, only one conductor system was installed. In the aforementioned route, an OPGW of 48 optical fibres per each end was also installed.

The Development Strategy of the Republic of Serbia anticipates construction of wind farms. In Vršac region, one of the planned wind farms is Košava Wind Farm with power lines for connecting Košava Wind Farm to the transmission network.

The wind farm will be connected to the grid via the planned 110 kV switchyard. Power line no. 151/3 will be connected to the 110 kV switchyard by constructing the new 2×110 kV power line between Košava Switchyard and Alibunar Substation, to the point of connection to power line no. 151/3. The 110 kV power line between Košava Substation and Vršac 1 Substation will be also connected to the 110 kV switchyard.
