In Spain this summer, I saw mostly concrete poles. Then, they don't have 
millions of tall trees over there. Cell and HV lines are on four sided, 
fabricated angle steel towers. They have cute little square concrete silos 
with hole for insulators at the top for substations, but they seem to be 
mostly abandoned or obsolete.
