"EnergoProekt" launches new project.
Sochi The foundation was laid under the first pylon N17 in the framework of design and construction works of the 110 kV overhead and cable lines for power delivery from Sochi TPS to substation Sochi.
IDGC Holding Director General Nikolay Shvets visited the ceremony.
May 14, 2010 The foundation of the first from 43 planned pylons was laid in Sochi in the frameworks of the construction of the overhead line 110 kV “Sochi TPS-Substation Sochi” The foundation was laid according to all technical requirements.
The first stage consisted in drilling a well (depth-8 m., diametr-2 m.). Then, embedded part (EP 1) was welded to the armature construction, which consists out of several wireframes.
The construction was put into the welded well and fixed in the designed position. The construction was fixed in the needed position, due to the concrete, which was filled into EP 1 central part.
The process was supervised by the IDGC Holding representatives with Nikolay Shvets at the head. “In general, we are satisfied with the construction progress of this object, and we do not have any essential remarks”- commented Alexandr Romaschenko, the representative of JSC “Kubanenergo” technical supervision
“110 kV overhead line from Sochi TPS-Sochi substation project has been being realized in the framework of Olympic objects construction and development of Sochi”-explained Andrey Naryshkin, “EnergoProekt” Deputy Director. – the length of the designed and constructed line will be 5,15 km, with height discontinuity from 11,1 to 129,8 m in the Baltic height system”.
“The construction is being held on the area with high urban density,- Aleksandr Zolotnik, the head of “GC EFESk” Objects Construction Direction in Sochi, comments- the works are held in space-limited environment, thus, the project prospects the usage of 4-circuit twin-pillar pylons for 110 kV overhead transmission line. There are no doubts that the complexity of the project influences the construction technology: the project prospects usage of the special machines and mechanisms for the basement production on the basis of auger piles, as well as involvement of the helicopters for piles installation”.
“Thanks to the close cooperation with "IDGC Holding", "IDGC of the South", "Kubanenergo, and the metal piles manufacturing factory "MuromEnergoMash" – comments "EnergoProekt" General Director" Gagik Zakharyan, - building and assembly jobs have been started according to the approved beforehand timetable. It is a great honor for us to contribute to the Sochi 2014 Olympic Games preparation program. It is a serious responsibility for the terms and quality of work. I hope, in future we will also carry out our obligations before customers promptly and qualitatively".

The Olympic power
On September, 9th, 2009, in Sochi took place a working meeting of the general director of ZAO “EnergoProekt” Gagik Zakharyan with mayor of city Anatoly Pakhomov and vice-mayor Oleg Yasyuk. At a meeting also there were representatives of the company “EFESk” on behalf of general director Vyacheslav Lazutkin, technical director Victor Silin and administrative director Andrey Naryshkin.
During a working meeting the questions connected with designing and construction of power objects for preparation for Olympic Games which will pass in Sochi in 2014 were discussed.
As a result, arrangements on the further cooperation – ZAO “EnergoProekt”- will be engaged in designing cable-lines and air-lines (110 kV) for delivery of capacity from Sochi thermoelectric power station up to substation “Sochi”, and also designing cable-line and air-line (110 kV) for delivery of capacity from Sochi thermoelectric power station up to substation “Khosta” and air-line (110 kV) for delivery of capacity from Sochi thermoelectric power station up to substation “Matsesta”, from substation “Matsesta” up to substation “Khosta”, from substation “Khosta” up to Krasnopolyanskaya hydroelectric power station, from Krasnopolyanskaya hydroelectric power station up to Sochi thermoelectric power station.
Certainly, similar cooperation not only will promote development of Krasnodar territory, but also will essentially lower quantity of annual failures and faults in power supply, characteristic for this region. It is necessary to note, that at designing these objects Japanese compact wires AERO-Z will be applied to high-voltage transmission lines. Such wires at the same relative density reduce overloads air-line, reduce thermal losses at transportation of the electric power, and also interfere with icings and sticking of a snow to wires.
