Note that the existing capacities are based on a conference paper from 2010 and are outdated. However no more recent capacities (in MW) can be found due to data limitations. Planned capacity consists of a planned 500 kV line between the Kurgan region (RUSUR) and the Tyumen region (RUSSI). No values in MW provided by the relevant source (translated from Russian). Voltage and Distance values (500 kV and 342.5 km) has been added for a new line commissioned in 2022, however, no MW values have been found for this line.
