380 kV line
Wahle-Mecklar, lot D4/D6

Client: LTB Leitungsbau GmbH
End customer: Tennet TSO GmbH
GVS-Energie's most challenging project in 2020. In addition to the many small construction sites, the project covers an area of 50 km.
Challenge in this project:
"In the 380-kV Wahle-Mecklar line project, the challenge lay in the topographical location of the pylons. To reach these, we had to construct a difficult road up to 1,000 meters long through forests, which were located on a 30° gradient. For example, for pylon 148, with a base weight of 33 tons, we had to construct an additional traverse to place the pylon bases into the pit and align them with the help of a 220-ton crane. Thanks to our experienced and well-coordinated foundation team, we were able to overcome these difficult conditions."
