FOR TS CONDUCTOR

All target accounts

Target 5 of 15 | PG&E | California

PG&E Lincoln to Pleasant Grove 115 kV

An approved reconductoring need with a stated ampacity requirement and a long in service date, which is exactly the profile where a specification can still be shaped.

ACTIVE PURSUITScore: 87 of 100Confidence: Medium

Evidence chain

  1. 1

    Policy, planning or funding trigger

    CAISO 2025 to 2026 planning includes an approved reconductoring need on Lincoln to Pleasant Grove 115 kV with a required rating of at least 1,517 A summer emergency, an estimated cost of $60M to $120M, and a 2034 in service target.
  2. 2

    Why this project is exposed

    The required rating is stated and the cost range is wide, which usually means structure treatment and rebuild extent are still being resolved. The public conductor type is not specified.
  3. 3

    Relevant TS capability

    High ampacity conductor meeting at least a 1,517 A summer emergency requirement with limited structural modification, supported by loading analysis that narrows the cost range.
  4. 4

    Is specification still influenceable?

    Yes on the specification question. No public conductor type is established and the in service target is 2034, so design decisions are ahead rather than behind.
  5. 5

    Recommended commercial action

    Position within the PG&E standards qualification path and offer loading and installed cost analysis against the stated 1,517 A requirement.
  6. 6

    Likely buyer

    PG&E transmission engineering, standards, and project engineering.
  7. 7

    Key uncertainty

    Detailed structure condition, rebuild extent, and where inside the $60M to $120M range the project settles are not public.

Best fit TS capability

115 kV reconductoring within existing structures

Why now

A strong standards and specification prospect precisely because the 2034 in service date leaves the conductor decision open. Qualification work done now applies when design begins.
