President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev, First Lady Mehriban Aliyeva, their daughters Leyla Aliyeva and Arzu Aliyeva are on a visit to Shusha city, May 12.

President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev, First Lady Mehriban Aliyeva, their daughters Leyla Aliyeva and Arzu Aliyeva first attended the inauguration of the 110/35/10-Kilovolt Shusha substation.

With a view to connecting the city of Shusha with the general energy system of Azerbaijan and providing the city with reliable and uninterrupted electric energy, in December last year, construction of the Shusha substation and 110-Kilovolt Shukurbeyli-Shusha overhead power transmission line at a 75km distance was launched, starting from Shukurbeyli substation of Fuzuli district.

The substation has been fully digitalized by being connected to the remotely controlled SCADA Supervisory Control System. Perspective development has also been taken into account here. Construction of the substation and the power transmission line was completed in a short span of time, although it was carried out in geographically difficult conditions. Erection of the 110-Kilovolt double-circuit electric line from Shukurbeyli substation in Fuzuli has been performed for 73 days, following the uninterrupted order of works, which is a record not only in the history of Azerbaijani energetics, but also of the region.
