Energization adds a transmission route after construction and testing
Moldova’s energy ministry says the 400 kV Vulcănești–Chișinău line and associated substations have been energized, with inauguration on November 8. Officials say the infrastructure diversifies electricity supply routes and strengthens connections with Romania and the European market. IPN reports that line construction finished in November 2025, followed by substation work and testing: energization is the new development. The project adds a route for transporting electricity; its opening does not establish new electricity generation or lower household bills.
