EWSA(ex.RECO) is installing an optical fibre cable connecting the national control centre to all power plants, HV/MV substations, EWSA offices, some of MV/LV substations and water treatment plants.

The fibre optic infrastructure providing both a broadband communication system and an energy management system is compiling a Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH), Internet Protocol Branch Exchange (IPBX) system and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition/Energy Management (SCADA/EM) system software and hardware.

For the utility it will facilitate in the immediate a better monitoring of the high and mid voltage grid and improve measurement, analysis and quick interventions. In addition, all company branches, power plants and stations will be interconnected allowing high-paced transmission of large amounts of data and phone calls on one same fibre cable.

With the optic fibre infrastructure the utility will be able to improve the quality of its service and bring direct benefits to the customers. Being part of the vision 2020 Socio-Economic Plan, optic fibre is bringing socio economic development to the country.

The OFC Transmission and SCADA System project worth Euro 24 million has been implemented through EWSA(ex.RECO) and funded partly by the Netherlands, MININFRA and EWSA(ex.RECO), the constructor being DRAKA Comptec cable solutions.

According to EWSA(ex.RECO) Management the installation of fibre optic is supposed to be completed on September 2010.
