At the same time, works were provided at the transformer stations, as well as the replacement of some damaged network elements: distribution boxes, poles, consoles, etc., but also grooming vegetation that come into contact with the electrical network.

In 7 of the 8 localities, the investments have already been completed. In the end, 51 km of overhead electrical networks will be modernized, 2,000 connections will be replaced and a new low voltage network will be built, on a length of 12.3 km.
