Review of 2008: November

Workforce expands

TenneT took over 141 employees from Essent Netwerk (now Enexis) in accordance with the operating agreements concluded for the 110 kV and 150 kV grids. The new staff took up positions in TenneT's new regional offices in Hoogeveen and Weert.

NOVEC buys telecommunication towers

Another successful purchase for NOVEC: 40 telecommunication towers and 13 roof installations from Dutch Tower. NOVEC took over 101 former Telfort towers from KPN earlier this year. The purchase enables NOVEC to further strengthen its position as an independent infrastructure provider for the distribution of telecommunication and broadcasting signals, and brought its total number of tower sites for mobile telecommunication and broadcasting signals in the Netherlands to 684.
