The SuedOstLink project is a direct current connection between Saxony-Anhalt and Bavaria.

Replacement construction or additional cables to strengthen the electricity infrastructure and improve the transport capacity for electrical energy

Integration of UW Güssing

Neueinbindung UW Sarasdorf

Regulation and replacement of high-voltage cables in two construction lots.

The construction project includes the renovation of the last ten support masts dating back to the construction years 1940/41.

The subject of the project is the electrification of the Koralm tunnel system as well as the construction of the overhead line system of the feeder lines on both the Styrian and the Carinthian side. In order to realize the equipment of the tunnel system within a challenging time frame, a joint venture between Europten and Rhomberg Fahrleitungsbau was founded for this project. The total length of the double-track Koralm Tunnel is approx. 33 kilometers. The overhead contact line system in the tunnel will be equipped with an overhead conductor rail system. The length of the overhead conductor rail system to be completed in the tunnel is approx. 66 kilometers. The feeder section is about 4 kilometers long and will be equipped with overhead contact line type 2.1. The demanding project will start in February 2024 and is scheduled for completion in December 2024.

Construction of a new line from the Oberpullendorf substation to Rotenturm.

Our extensive project for the 308-kV line from Dörpen to West Lower Rhine also includes the LOS 2b project. This consists of a total of 8 impressive 380 kV masts.

According to the planning, the dismantling work of the 380 kV existing line will be carried out after and during the construction of the 380 kV new replacement line. 

The electrification of line 2645 is part of the overall concept "Electrification Eifel Lines".  After the flood in July 2021, it was decided that these should be electrified as a whole in the course of reconstruction and the associated legal easements.
For the electrification of the Voreifelbahn, the approx. 33 route kilometers were divided into 3 lots (lots 6, 7 and 8).  Lot 8 is the largest section with 14 km.
The reconstruction of the necessary railroad structures (ballast bed, tracks, etc.) for railroad operation already took place in 2022.
The main construction work for the overhead line will take place to a large extent during night and weekend closures in 2025 before the line is scheduled to go into operation in December 2026.
Part of the current tender is the preparation of the design and implementation planning, as well as the construction of the entire overhead line system up to commissioning.

This project focuses on increasing the current carrying capacity of the 220 kV Bertikow - Pasewalk line. This is to be ensured by the construction of the new 380 kV overhead line from the Bertikow substation to the Pasewalk substation.

In the St. Gallen Rhine Valley, long-distance trains are to run every half hour between St. Gallen and Sargans in the future. This will require additional double-track sections as well as further construction work on the rail infrastructure.

For this reason, EUROPTEN will implement the double-track expansion between Sevelen and Buchs SG (4 kilometers) as part of the federal government's 2025 expansion plan.

SOB and SBB trains are run on the same track between Wattwil and Lichtensteig stations. This means that SOB and SBB are jointly responsible for operating the traction power supply. A traction power supply concept exists between SBB and SOB for the above-mentioned section of line, the aim of which is to keep system availability as high as possible. Increased system availability helps to prevent system failures (blackouts) such as those that occurred in 2005.

SBB is upgrading Embrach-Rorbas / Pfungen station to be step-free so that it meets the requirements of the Disability Equality Act (BehiG). At the same time, the overhead contact line system is being renewed. We are rebuilding the catenary system on the Pfungen to Embrach line and at Embrach station and demolishing the old catenary system with our 2-way vehicles.
