Soorebane (Bog Fox), Estonia’s first designer high voltage pylon, was completed in 2020 by Elering, the national transmission system operator for electricity; the landmark pylon in Risti, western Estonia, has now started to attract an international attention.
The government-owned Elering held a design competition for the artistic pylon in 2016, receiving 18 entries. The winning idea, called Bog Fox (Soorebane in Estonian), was designed by architects Sille Pihlak and Siim Tuksam from the studio PART.

According to Elering, the company’s aim was to “elicit the solution that was the best fit for the location architecturally and functionally”.
