Sustainable lattice towers for 380kV transmission lines

The big challenge, which energy sector meets nowadays, is sustainability. The latest European regulation 2024/1781 for Eco-design, which came in power at 28th June 2024, set priorities for the product groups, one of which is structural steel. This is closely related to the energy transmission sector in Germany, where the majority of lattice towers are produced with structural steel. The transmission network operator has established an internal program called
