Rețele Electrice Romania, part of the PPC Group in Romania, has completed the modernization works of the electricity distribution networks serving more than 4,000 customers in Năvodari, for a total amount of more than 22 million lei (VAT included). The company has attracted European funds for co-financing the projects through the Modernization Fund. European co-financing amounted to about 17.5 million lei.
Thus, at the end of 2025, Rețele Electrice Romania completed a project to modernize and increase the reliability of the medium voltage electricity networks related to the Năvodari transformer station. The total value of the investment exceeded RON 22 million, of which RON 17.5 million came from the Modernization Fund.
Among the works carried out under this project, aimed at improving the quality of the distribution service, are: modernization of the medium voltage lines in the Năvodari 110/20 kV transformer station, where about 37 km of medium voltage power lines were upgraded and extended. In addition, 14 transformer substations were modernized and digital systems were introduced to provide a higher level of network monitoring and control.
„The completion of this project, financed by the Modernization Fund, reflects our ongoing commitment to strengthen and modernize the distribution networks in Constanța County, especially in the Năvodari area, where we are also in the process of modernizing the transformer station. Through these investments, we are creating the premises for the integration of modern remote control technologies and for the development of a safer and more efficient infrastructure, which better meets the needs of local communities and contributes to increasing the quality of life”, said Mihai Pește, General Manager of Rețele Electrice Romania
These modernization works on the lines and transformer substations strengthen the quality of the service provided by increasing the safety and reliability of the electricity network.
