Opening Ceremony of the Aghdam-1” and “Aghdam-2” Substations and the Digital Control Center of the Karabakh Regional Electric Network

President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev and First Lady Mehriban Aliyeva attended the opening of the “Aghdam-1” and “Aghdam-2” substations, as well as the Digital Control Center of the Karabakh Regional Electric Network on February 13 that newly constructed in the city of Aghdam. President Ilham Aliyev inaugurated the power substations and the Center.

“Azerenergy” OJSC built a double-circuit 110-kilovolt high-voltage power transmission line at 35 kilometers from the “Khindiristan” substation to connect the liberated Aghdam region to the general power system of Azerbaijan and provide the region with stable and uninterrupted energy. This line passed through a thoroughly mined area. This difficult task was carried out in some places by opening several meters wide paths between the mines. A 24-wire fiber optic cable was laid for lightning protection and information exchange between substations on the 110-kW line in a total distance of 63 kilometers from Aghjabadi to Khindiristan and from there to “Aghdam-1” and “Aghdam-2” substations. Thus, by this, not only an electric line but also a high-speed Internet line with the highest speed was laid to Aghdam.
