To connect Blue Bridge Solar Park G.P. Ltd.’s (Blue Bridge) Solar Project to the grid, AltaLink is proposing changes to its transmission system. The project is located in Cypress County, approximately 24 kilometres northwest of Hilda.
Blue Bridge plans to construct a new substation, named Arenosum. AltaLink is proposing changes to accommodate the connection of Blue
Bridge’s project and its Arenosum substation, including:
- constructing approximately 300 metres of new 240 kilovolt (kV) transmission line (to be named 1002AL)
- modifying and realigning a portion of AltaLink’s existing 1002L transmission line
- installing a new telecommunications tower in Blue Bridge’s proposed Arenosum substation
