The high voltage station in Bradu, near Pitesti, is being upgraded under a project worth 29 million euros led by Romelectro.

“We need new lines, modern, and a 400 KV ring system which would ensure continuity in any emergency. The upgrading of Bradu near Pitesti plant will be completed in July 2018”, the Romelectro officials said.
Transelectrica’s Bradu station is an important hub for connecting with national system and power lines throughout the country.
