Public information for the double-circuit power line in Talarrubias

The Industrial, Energy, and Mining Planning Service of the General Directorate of Industry, Energy, and Mines of the Junta de Extremadura has opened the public information process for the prior administrative authorization and the specific recognition of public utility of a double-circuit overhead and underground line at 22 kV in the municipality of Talarrubias. The announcement, published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Badajoz number 215, dated November 10, 2026, with reference Announcement 3506/2026, grants a period of thirty business days to examine the file and submit allegations. The declaration of public utility being processed will implicitly carry the need for the occupation of the affected assets and rights and will imply the urgent occupation of the land.

The procedure is based on Title IX of Law 24/2013, of December 26, on the Electricity Sector, and Title VII, Chapter II, of Royal Decree 1955/2000, of December 1, which regulates the activities of transport, distribution, marketing, supply, and the authorization procedures for electrical energy installations. The resolution that concludes the file will be the responsibility of the Industrial, Energy, and Mining Planning Service itself, in accordance with Decree 221/2012, of November 9, on the determination of the means of publishing announcements and the competent bodies in the energy and hydrocarbon sectors. According to the announcement, the project must also undergo a simplified environmental impact assessment.

Thirty business days for allegations

The public exhibition period is thirty business days starting from the day following the publication of the announcement. The documentation can be consulted at the offices of the Industrial, Energy and Mining Planning Service, at Miguel Fabra avenue number 4, «El Nevero» industrial estate, in Badajoz, by appointment via telephone at 924012100 or email at soiemba@juntaex.es, as well as on the website industriaextremadura.juntaex.es, in the “Public Information” section.

Allegations must be addressed to the competent body to resolve the procedure and submitted through any of the registries and offices provided for in Article 16 of Law 39/2015, of October 1, on the Common Administrative Procedure of Public Administrations. The announcement is signed by proxy by Rafael Ramos Mora, head of the Supply Standardization and Quality Service, by virtue of the General Directorate’s resolution of June 19, 2026.

The relevance of this procedure is twofold for the residents of Talarrubias: on one hand, it orders the reform of the distribution network that feeds the transformation centers of the town center and the exit towards the slaughterhouse line, with the stated objective of improving the quality of the supply; on the other, it opens the door to the urgent expropriation of private land, such that the owners of the six affected plots have a limited period to appear and make allegations before the resolution closes the file.
