New measure by Toroslar EDAŞ against forest fire risk

Acting with its pioneering technologies in the sector and environmental focus, the Fire Prevention Project with a budget worth TL 12.8 million has been realized for the power poles located in the Toroslar EDAŞ’s responsibility site in the forest areas which carry the risk of fire.

Toroslar Elektrik Dağıtım Anonim Şirketi (Toroslar EDAŞ) continues with its projects and investments centering on digitalization in Adana, Gaziantep, Hatay, Kilis, Mersin and Osmaniye and brings to life new projects to protect the forests in the region.

The Fire Prevention Project has been brought to life as part of this, covering forest areas with high temperatures which carry the risk of fire.  The project aims to minimize fire risk due to arcs that may occur on disconnector fuses in the areas which carry fire risk.

In line with this aim, stone chips or lean concrete materials are being laid down in an area with 10 cm of thickness and 3 meters of radius under the poles which include this type of disconnectors. Thanks to this process, a safe area is being created between the power poles and dry weeds, tree branches, pinecones and trees which would prevent occurrence and dissemination of flames.

Fire Prevention Facilities increase

Continuing its activities by focusing on people, solutions and innovation and pioneering in the sector by shaping the changing and developing dynamics of the sector,

Toroslar EDAŞ forced the pace of the project in 2023 which is being implemented in 6 provinces under the responsibility of the company.

Areas with fire risk and the poles in these areas which include disconnectors were determined by Toroslar EDAŞ teams in June.

The project aims to implement Fire Prevention measures on approximately 800 poles with disconnector fuses located in the forest areas by the middle of 2024 with a budget of TL 12.8 million and to minimize fire risk, and the work has been completed on 180 poles to date using TL 2,880,000 of the budget.

Toroslar EDAŞ field teams and System Operation Directorate work together in the project which is being brought to life to take measures against fire disasters that may occur in the region as well as providing continuous supply for increasing energy demand.
