The Colectora substation (500KV) and associated transmission lines in Colombia's La Guajira department are crucial for transporting energy from new wind power plants to the national interconnected system.
Covering approximately 110 km each, these 500KV lines connect the Colectora substation to Cuestecitas substation and extend further to La Loma substation (250 km). This project promotes the use of cleaner technologies, supporting the expansion of non-conventional renewable energy sources and addressing climate change. Skipper Limited, has played a crucial role in the project's success.
Supplying various 500KV / 230KV towers weighing a total of 10,453.65 metric tons, Skipper has demonstrated its expertise in delivering high-quality equipment tailored to the project's specifications.
The Colectora substation and associated transmission lines project represent a paradigm shift towards sustainable energy development in Colombia. By leveraging cleaner technologies and promoting renewable energy integration, the project not only enhances energy security but also fosters economic growth and environmental sustainability. As Colombia continues to prioritize renewable energy initiatives, the Colectora substation stands as a beacon of progress towards a greener and more resilient future.
