By amplifying the transformer station, the power needed to connect new users, in a continuously developing area, and an increased degree of safety in the electricity supply are ensured. The new transformers are built with advanced technology to reduce the own technological consumption in the distribution network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From this primary substation are supplied the customers of the south-eastern area of Timi\u0219oara municipality, Mo\u0219ni\u021ba locality and surrounding localities.

In 2023, Re\u021bele Electrice Banat completed the construction of a new primary substation in Dumbr\u0103vi\u021ba commune, near Timi\u0219oara, for the benefit of over 5.300 customers, in a developing area.
