Transmission lines
The Transmission Line Engineering is the mainstay of HECLA’s activities since the birth of the Company. The related companies have several decades of experience in that field till 800 kV, including overhead lines and substations.

Softwares to optimize the transmission towers and the overhead lines (MoDeST © & ICEtow ©) have been designed by Linuhönnun, now EFLA.

HECLA is assisted by EFLA when electric engineering is needed, mainly in potential rise and electromagnetic fields calculations.

The Icelandic National Electric Company Landsvirkjun and its subsidiary company LANDSVIRKJUN POWER bring their Transmission System Operator abilities HECLA can offer to various customers.

In 2003, HECLA has signed a contract with the French Transmission System Operator RTE for the technical studies of the French transmission lines. To perform this task, HECLA operates with 6 PLS-CADD © licences and 6 TOWER © licences recommended by RTE. More than ten engineers are permanently working to carry out strengthening studies and rehabilitation surveys of the Fench network.

HECLA is qualified by the Portuguese Transmission System Operator, REN, to study the enlargement of the national transmission network and is also qualified by the Spanish TSO REE.


Hydroelectricity
HECLA plays as commercial vehicle on behalf of Landsvirkjun Power to explore countries already fitted with hydropower units to provide them with our know-how in refurbishment and renewal.

Feasibilty studies, supervision of works and B.O.T. projects are some other goals.

HECLA team will do the project management.

HECLA is qualified by the Moroccan Electric Company ONE.

References are based on projects from 5 MW units to 630 MW groups.
