Eltel signs EUR 19 million contract to build transmission line in Finland

Eltel Finland has signed an agreement with Fingrid, Finland’s national transmission operator, to build a 64 km long 400+110 kV transmission line. The contract is worth about EUR 19 million.

The new power transmission line will run between Vuolijoki and Tervaportti in the mid-Eastern part of Finland. This phase is a part of Fingrid’s Järvilinja transmission line (Lake line), which will further strengthen the energy efficiency and capacity of the transmission grid in Finland as the renewable energy transition progresses.

The project will start in the fourth quarter of 2023 and will be completed by the second half of 2025.
