One of our strategic objectives is action for energy security of the country: to ensure continuity of electricity and heat supply and reliable operation of the distribution network.

In order to ensure reliability of energy supply to Clients:

• we introduce state-of-the-art technical standards, 
• we operate strictly in accordance with procedures, 
• we maintain the required state of the infrastructure, 

• we perform preventive diagnostic measurements,
• we invest in the development of production assets,
• we modernize and automate the power grids,

• we continue to improve all the time the qualifications of our team, 
• we appropriately plan shutdowns during modernization works, 
• we analyze the causes of breakdowns. 

As part of the measures applied to improve the reliability of grid operation, especially of the MV grid, which has the greatest influence on the indicators of duration and frequency of interruptions in electricity supply, the following program and supporting activities are carried out, among others:

• adjusting the needs of own substations to ensure 24-hour power backup, 
• adjustment of automation of AFO (automatic load-shedding), 
• implementation of the MV Grid Development Concept, which takes into account development of automated solutions within the grid, 
• cables of MV grids passing through forest areas, 
• removal of equipment constraints, 

• implementation of the FDIR (Fault Detection, Isolation & Restoration) function in selected MV line sections, 
• liquidation of the 6 kV grid in the Poznań urban area, 
• activities in respect to measurements and diagnostics of medium voltage cable lines, 
• systemic measures related to the removal of trees and bushes within the zones under power lines. 

The safety of electricity supply to customers is also significantly improved by introducing standards for any materials used and works performed on the company’s distribution network. The use of standardized network equipment enables a faster removal of failures. During the process aimed at developing such standards, each solution is subjected to an in-depth analysis and technological tests. All standards are then subjected to annual analyses enabling their detailed formulation and updating in a manner that makes the requirements and guidelines contained therein reflect the changing needs of the power grid operation. Additionally, every year tests of the correctness and speed of response to a mass failure are conducted in selected business units of the company. 

In 2021, ENEA Operator continued its efforts aimed at improving the operational reliability of the distribution grid. To this end, it primarily carried out planned diagnostics of MV cable lines and ongoing modernization of power facilities and equipment in line with the existing modernization programs. It also maintained the regular strengthening of the support infrastructure for distribution activities, i.e. purchase of specialist equipment (including vehicles) and construction and modernization of support facilities. 

Overall, in 2021 the company allocated more than PLN 1 billion for investments that directly or indirectly increased the reliability of electricity supply. 

The pace of improvement of the electricity supply reliability indicators is a result of a consistent implementation of extensive efforts in the areas of capital expenditures, operation and work organization.
