SCE Santa Clara to Vincent 230 kV

The second leading SB1006 concept, with the same economics argument and the same absence of an approved project.

Evidence chain

  1. 1

    Policy, planning or funding trigger

    SCE's SB1006 study describes roughly 40 miles of HTLS reconductoring with a 2,180 A emergency rating target on this line.
  2. 2

    Why this project is exposed

    Cost escalation and transparency scrutiny apply to this concept as well, and structural modification scope is a primary cost driver.
  3. 3

    Relevant TS capability

    Conductor meeting the 2,180 A emergency target with reduced structure modification and shorter outage exposure.
  4. 4

    Is specification still influenceable?

    Yes at the concept stage, with no approved scope to displace.
  5. 5

    Recommended commercial action

    Extend the same installed cost and structure modification comparison to this line so both concepts can be addressed together.
  6. 6

    Likely buyer

    SCE transmission planning and engineering.
  7. 7

    Key uncertainty

    Project advancement, need, and final scope remain open.

HTLS assumed in concept, brand open

Best fit TS capability

Installed cost competition against HTLS

Why now

Both concepts move through the same planning discussions, so prepare them together.

Required caution

This is a proposal from SCE's SB1006 work, not a confirmed Board approved CAISO project by that name.
