  • Strategic Transmission Discussion
    Section 1:4: ExecutiveStrategic SummaryTransmission Discussion Strategic Discussion Section 4 SECTION 4: NEAC STRATEGIC TRANSMISSION DISCUSSION 4.1 SECTION PURPOSE The purpose of this section is to describe and discuss the methodology, rationale, and technical assessments utilized to determine the transmission export projects presented in this report. In order to provide an overall view of the process, this section summarizes the chronological process that was completed to reach the conclusion of the three proposed export transmission routes. 4.2 BACKGROUND 4.2.1 Transmission Historical Development The existing transmission grid in the state of Nevada has generally been planned, designed, constructed, and operated to transport energy from generators located in neighboring states and generators located in rural locations to serve electric loads principally in urban centers within the state. Historically generators were sized to serve the electric loads for single concentrated urban areas and/or industrial electric customers. It was recognized over time that economies could be obtained by constructing large generation facilities. This required constructing transmission lines for interconnecting the generators with multiple concentrated electric loads (“load centers”). Further development of the transmission grid resulted from interconnecting multiple generation facilities to enhance reliability in the event of outages on the generators. The state of Nevada does not have indigenous coal, oil, or natural gas to fuel conventional generators. As a result, Nevada must rely on the import of fuels and electrical energy to supply the electric load centers throughout the State. To support this, the existing transmission grid has been constructed to a large extent to import electric energy resources.

It’s a beautiful day – the sun clear and strong – sky absolute blue and the air fresh on your nostrils. You wake to a bowl of fresh fruit and two huge farm 1 eggs, grab your board and walk through green, dewy fields to your favourite surf spot. Not another being in sight except for the animals and birds going about their morning’s business. The beach is pure and inviting – you dig your toes into golden sand… It’s a beautiful day? – the sun weak – half obliterated by a perfect morning smog, the sky greyish-blue and the air smarting in your nostrils and choking your lungs… You gasp for another deep breath of sweet industrial smog – a yummy bowl of plastic Krunchy Pops with pasteurized milk and two battery- hen eggs you can hardly taste gobbled down with relish before the long walk through a concrete jungle to your favourite surf spot.

  • Advanced Transmission Technologies
    Advanced Transmission Technologies December 2020 United States Department of Energy Washington, DC 20585 Executive Summary The high-voltage transmission electric grid is a complex, interconnected, and interdependent system that is responsible for providing safe, reliable, and cost-effective electricity to customers. In the United States, the transmission system is comprised of three distinct power grids, or “interconnections”: the Eastern Interconnection, the Western Interconnection, and a smaller grid containing most of Texas. The three systems have weak ties between them to act as power transfers, but they largely rely on independent systems to remain stable and reliable. Along with aged assets, primarily from the 1960s and 1970s, the electric power system is evolving, from consisting of predominantly reliable, dependable, and variable-output generation sources (e.g., coal, natural gas, and hydroelectric) to increasing percentages of climate- and weather- dependent intermittent power generation sources (e.g., wind and solar). All of these generation sources rely heavily on high-voltage transmission lines, substations, and the distribution grid to bring electric power to the customers. The original vertically-integrated system design was simple, following the path of generation to transmission to distribution to customer. The centralized control paradigm in which generation is dispatched to serve variable customer demands is being challenged with greater deployment of distributed energy resources (at both the transmission and distribution level), which may not follow the traditional path mentioned above. This means an electricity customer today could be a generation source tomorrow if wind or solar assets were on their privately-owned property. The fact that customers can now be power sources means that they do not have to wholly rely on their utility to serve their needs and they could sell power back to the utility.
