The Rosseti Center Kostromaenergo branch has summed up the results of the implementation of the environmental safety program for the first half of 2020, aimed at implementing the environmental policy of the branch’s power grid complex. At the beginning of the year, power engineers performed about 20 environmental protection measures. More than 1.5 million rubles were allocated for these purposes.
The program pays much attention to technical measures aimed at reducing the negative impact on the environment during the operation of equipment. Since the beginning of the year, the Kostroma power engineers have carried out overhaul of more than 50 circuit breakers.
At the branch’s power grid facilities, the bare wire is being replaced with a self-supporting insulated wire (SIP). So, for six months, power engineers reconstructed over 35 kilometers of 0.4-10 kV overhead power lines, replacing the bare wire with a self-supporting insulated wire (SIP) in the 0.4 kV network, and also replaced 12 kilometers with 6-10 kV overhead lines. This measure allows to reduce the cutting area of ​​glades, as well as to protect birds from electric shock.
Work continued to control emissions of pollutants into the air. The branch has signed an agreement to monitor emissions of pollutants from 45 stationary emission sources and at the border of the sanitary protection zones of Kostromaenergo facilities.
For 6 months of 2020, more than 236 tons of waste were transferred to third-party organizations that have licenses for the collection, transportation, processing, disposal, disposal, disposal of waste of I-IV hazard classes. Disposal costs exceeded RUB 895 thousand. More than 140 thousand rubles were spent on landscaping and landscaping of the territory of the branches of the branch.
9 employees of Kostromaenergo, responsible for environmental protection, have been trained since the beginning of the year on environmental safety programs, including work in the field of hazardous waste management. Most of them, due to the complication of the epidemiological situation, received new knowledge remotely.
By the end of the year, power engineers plan to carry out about 16 more environmental safety measures, including, in particular, instrumental measurements of atmospheric air, inventory of waste, purchase of vehicles using gas engine fuel, construction and reconstruction of 0.4 kV overhead lines using self-supporting insulated wire, repair of oil switches … By the end of the year, it is planned to allocate over 3.5 million rubles for the implementation of the environmental program.
