Abstract
This chapter introduces the history of transmission lines and their integration into power systems. The existing energy systems and plans to create new ones are briefly described. Given the vast scale of the UESR and the pioneering efforts of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) to create the world’s first 1150 kV AC and 1500 kV DC transmission lines, the development of the Russian/USSR energy industry has received somewhat more attention.
