Moldova interconnection project
Name of the Project
Moldova interconnection project.
Location
Moldova.
Project Owner/s
Moldelectrica.
Project Description
The interconnection is of critical importance for the diversification of Moldova’s electricity resources.
Molodva currently depends on a single power plant fuelled by natural gas, oil and coal, and on electricity imports from Ukraine for up to 80% of its electricity supply.
The project entails the construction of a 600 MW back-to-back converter station in Vulcanesti and a new 400 kV high-voltage overhead line between Vulcanesti and Moldova’s capital of Chisinau, as well as the expansion and upgrade of associated high-voltage substations.
With this project, Moldova will be able to connect its electricity network with that of Romania, which will considerably enhance the stability and reliability of Moldova’s power supply – a prerequisite for the country’s economic development.
