Why the line matters
A direct link with Romania. Chișinău is connected to the Romanian grid through the Isaccea–Vulcănești interconnection.
Bypassing the MGRES node. The line bypasses the node on the left bank of the Dniester and replaces the worn-out Vulcănești–MGRES line.
The largest investment. It is the largest investment in the transmission grid in recent decades: EUR 61 million, financed by the World Bank.
