FOR TS CONDUCTOR

Target 13 of 15 | PG&E | California

PG&E Monta Vista to Loyola to Los Altos 60 kV

A 60 kV sub transmission project in a constrained suburban corridor, useful as pipeline breadth rather than a lead pursuit.

Evidence chain

  1. 1

    Policy, planning or funding trigger

    CAISO approved the Monta Vista to Loyola to Los Altos 60 kV reconductoring project in its 2025 to 2026 transmission plan, with an estimated cost of about $64M. The public conductor type is not specified.
  2. 2

    Why this project is exposed

    Suburban corridors limit structure additions, so capacity increase within existing structures is the practical path if loading permits.
  3. 3

    Relevant TS capability

    Capacity increase at sub transmission voltage with minimal structural change.
  4. 4

    Is specification still influenceable?

    Possibly. No public conductor type is established, so the specification route runs through PG&E standards and project engineering.
  5. 5

    Recommended commercial action

    Qualify required ampacity and structure condition before committing engineering effort.
  6. 6

    Likely buyer

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

    Key uncertainty

    TS fit depends on the detailed rating and structure constraints, neither of which is public at this stage.

Why now

Approved and costed at about $64M, so it belongs in the standards case now. Fit still depends on detailed rating and structure constraints.
