The undergrounding work is carried out, at the request of the local authorities, by SDEC ÉNERGIE, which coordinates the undergrounding of the three networks in a single trench, thus limiting work costs, intervention times, and multiple road interventions. The levels of intervention depend on the location of the municipality and the cable replacement techniques. Depending on the expenses, aid may be granted upon the opinion of the union office and may be capped.
