RTE — Sites électriques RTE et points de piquage (ODRÉ)

Published by RTE Réseau de Transport d'Électricité · FR · Twice a year

Grantedredistribution_allowedHealthy

RTE's register of the sites of the French transmission network and of the tap points on its lines, with each site's RTE code, name, function, state, highest voltage and département. An asset register without capacity values and, by RTE's policy, without coordinates.

What is withheld, and why

Nothing is withheld. Values from this source are served as published.

Licence Ouverte asks for the source and the date of its last update; the date is the dataset's data_processed, which every asset's run carries as source_effective_at. A run notes it if the dataset's licence field ever changes.

RTE register of electrical sites and tap points

fr_rte_postes_register · vpostes-electriques-rte (data_processed 2026-06-16)

The sites owned or co-owned by RTE, or at the end of an RTE line, in mainland France, and the tap points on RTE lines, as published on ODRÉ. No capacity is stated.

notes: ["Asset-only: 5,042 sites (4,232 'Poste de transformation' → substation, 810 'Point de piquage' → node) as of 16 June 2026, no capacity. Its value is the RTE code (code_poste, 2–5 characters, trimmed), carried as the rte_poste identifier so that Caparéseau postes and other ODRÉ datasets resolve onto the same canonical asset.","No coordinates: « RTE a fait évoluer l'accès aux données GPS des infrastructures du réseau public de transport pour des raisons de sécurité publique. » The département is kept as the asset's region; no position is ever re-derived from another source.","The register lists RTE's sites and non-RTE sites where an RTE line ends (customer substations, foreign ends such as .PIOS, Piossasco), without saying which is which; operator_slug records the publisher.","tension is the highest voltage on the site: 63kV-style values become voltage_kv; <45kV, COURANT CONTINU and HORS TENSION are kept as the operator's label only. etat ACCORD ADMINISTRATIF (75 sites) marks a project with administrative consent, not yet in service."]
