Personnel and OrganisationTenneXT programme completedIn 2007 and 2008 TenneT worked closely with the regional grid operators on the transfer of management of the 110 kV and 150 kV grids. This transfer took place in the framework of the Independent Grid Administration Act. In the first year the organisation was prepared for taking on the management activities. The actual integration took place last year.
During the discussions on the transition process it became apparent that the requirements and circumstances of each grid operator differed. TenneT therefore made individual arrangements with each company. The most striking results were achieved with Essent in 2008. We took over all high-voltage activities for the 110 kV and 150 kV grids in November, as a result of which we opened two regional offices in Hoogeveen and Weert. A total of 141 Essent employees transferred to TenneT. Most are now working in the regional offices; some took up positions in various departments at our Arnhem head office.
By the end of 2008 the TenneXT programme was virtually completed. The operational management of all regional grids will be controlled from TenneT's second National Control Centre by no later than 2010, and is being transferred in stages.
