Following strict safety measures, the specialists were able to replace 248 bird beacons in less than a week. Using a land-based mobile work platform, this work would normally have taken 3 to 4 months. \u201cThe operation looks impressive. At the same time it is the result of a method\u00a0that has been successfully carried out by regularly-trained RTE operators,\u201d insists Rapha\u00ebl Galisson, Project Manager at RTE international.<\/p>\n<h3><b>The French expertise also showed that it was possible not to shut down the entire power line<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Current legislation in the Netherlands prohibits Live Working, so it was a demonstration without electricity, but the work could be carried out using the Live Working method. For this pilot project, everything was granted under the strict supervision of the Ministry\u2019s labour inspectorate (ISZW).<\/p>\n<p>Jan Willem Kijlstra, Director of RTEi Netherlands, stated that \u201cWith the increase in interconnections and the growing complexity of the grid due to the energy transition, the high-voltage grid is now under increasing strain. Shutting down substations and lines in order to carry out works causes major difficulties in ensuring the security and continuity of the electricity supply\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Dennis Geerts, RTEi Netherlands Operations Director is looking forward to the next project. \u201cThis success will support TenneT and the government to evaluate the possibility of further developing this type of maintenance operation, helicopter and Live Working\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.airtelis.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" title=\"link to www.airtelis.com\">About Airtelis<\/a><span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Created in 2011, AIRTELIS is a wholly owned subsidiary or RTE (R\u00e9seau de Transport d\u2019Electricit\u00e9), the French Transmission System Operator (TSO).<br \/>\nOur main activities are aerial works &amp; power grids, training &amp; Engineering, aeronautical services (rental and maintenance) and emergency organisations.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennet.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" title=\"link to www.tennet.eu\">About TenneT<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>TenneT is a leading European electricity transmission system operator (TSO) with its main activities in the Netherlands and Germany.
