Still around Eastern Indonesia, this time we will visit South Buru Island-Maluku, the location of one of the transmission line projects being worked on by PT Rekadaya Elektrika (RE). The 70 kV Namrole – Namlea Transmission Line project will connect two substations (GI), namely Namrole GI and Namlea GI, which cross 7 villages with a total distance of 90.3 kilometers.

Entering the end of January, the overall progress of the work has reached 84.12% (leading from the target of 80.77%). Currently, the total land that has been acquired has reached 93.16%, with a total of 216 foundations that have been completed, of the target of 234 tower foundations (92.31%). (72.65%).

The Namrole-Namlea 70 kV TL Project is also not free from a number of technical and non-technical challenges. One of the obstacles faced was the rocky location of the land, which made it difficult for the field team to work. However, the team in the field has exerted maximum effort, including using jack hammers and heavy equipment (excavators) to level the roads and the foundation construction sites.

The RE project team continues to make progress in the construction of this transmission line, so that it can immediately meet the electricity needs of the people on South Buru Island, Maluku.
