The electricity grid of the Formazza Valley, the northernmost in Piedmont, will be redesigned.
The operation, implemented by Terna, will affect the Ossola municipalities of Formazza, Premia, Crodo, Montecrestese, Crevoladossola, Masera and Baceno.
The project, for an investment of 120 million euros, involves the demolition of approximately 60 km of existing high voltage overhead power lines for a total of 225 supports, to be built upon completion of 76 km of new overhead power lines and 10 km of cable underground. The work will ensure greater efficiency of the area’s energy transmission service and, as a result of the reorganization of the existing network, will make it possible to reduce the impact on the territory due to power lines dating back to the 1940s-1950s that cross affected areas. from a strong presence of buildings.
