Saving raptors in Mongolia: country-scale retrofitting of insulation to reduce avian electrocution at power lines
The delivery of electricity to widely dispersed communities across the open steppe grasslands of Mongolia depends on medium-voltage (10–35 kV) distribution lines, often carrying power over substantial distances. Previously utilizing wooden supports, upgraded and new distribution lines are now design...

| description | The delivery of electricity to widely dispersed communities across the open steppe grasslands of Mongolia depends on medium-voltage (10–35 kV) distribution lines, often carrying power over substantial distances. Previously utilizing wooden supports, upgraded and new distribution lines are now designed to be cheaper, using steel-reinforced concrete poles with galvanized steel crossarms that can carry an electrical charge to the ground. |
