Fundación de Torres Eléctricas
El proyecto Nueva Esperanza en Colombia es un proyecto del gobierno que mejorará el abastecimiento con energía de más de 12 millones de colombianos en Bogotá y en los departamentos de Cundinamarca, Meta, Guaviare y Tolima.
Context
Within the scope of the project, the new Soacha transformer station is being built. It will be connected to the Guavio transformer station via a 230KV high-voltage line and to the Bacatá transformer station via a 500KV high-voltage line.
The Nueva Esperanza Joint Venture was awarded the contract to build the 45.5km long 500KV high-voltage line. Individual tower foundations were realized on agricultural ground for this purpose.
Solution
In order not to impair the work of the farms and to avoid possible damage to the agricultural areas, the foundations for the 9 transmission towers were built using the 50mm DYWIDAG GEWI Pile System. DYWIDAG supplied a total of 6,573m of DYWIDAG GEWI Bars and accessories for this project. The foundations were successfully executed within the determined time frame.
