Among them is the call for the drawing up of records prior to the occupation of estates affected by the high-voltage line and collector substation project in the municipality of Chucena, processed as file AT-80033 and published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Huelva number 170, dated September 3, 2026.

These files refer to high-voltage installations and their associated substations, key components for the transport and evacuation of energy in the Huelva territory.

Impact for the coast and industry

The authorization of Castillejos at the Costaluz Substation reinforces the electrical grid in the surroundings of Lepe, a municipality on the western Huelva coast with intensive agricultural, industrial, and tourist activity. The resolution allows the transition from the project phase to the construction phase of the installation, which opens the door to the execution of the works once the planned sectoral procedures have been completed.

For the readers of the region, the announcement serves as official confirmation that the energy infrastructure is advancing and that the regional Administration has validated the project in its two dimensions: the preliminary and the construction phases.
