Visit to Vilyuiskaya HPP Cascade

On 19 June 2017, Oleg Bakulin, Director on Partner relations at Izolyator visited the Vilyuiskaya HPP cascade named after E. N. Batenchuk in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).

Vilyuiskaya HPP named after E. N. Batenchuk is a hydraulic power plants complex in Russia, located on the Vilyui river in Sakha Republic (Yakutia). Most of the erection works were completed in the Soviet period when the cascade construction was associated with the industrial development and tapping resources of Yakutia. The cascade is the only guaranteed power supply ensuring uninterruptible delivery of electricity to the Western Yakutia. Vilyuiskaya HPP named after E. N. Batenchuk is part of Yakutskenergo PJSC.

The guest was received by the Director of Vilyuiskaya HPP named after E. N. Batenchuk Alexander Goryainov.

The sides discussed the successful operational experience of Izolyator bushings in various geographic areas including the most complicated natural and climatic conditions of Yakutia.

At Alexander Goryainov’s invitation, the visitors viewed the high-voltage equipment operated at the power plant, which included Izolyator-made transformer and wall bushings 220 kV and 110 kV with solid RIP insulation.

At the end of the talks, the sides set up cooperation plans for the nearest and remote prospects.
