Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) proposes to interconnect two 20-megawatt (MW) solar development projects to BPA’s electrical transmission system. The solar developer is New Sun Energy Transmission Company, LLC. The two solar projects would share one point of interconnection along BPA’s Brasada-Harney-No.1 transmission line. BPA’s proposed action to support the interconnection request consists of installing a tap facility to connect the customer’s transmission line to BPA’s grid, along with minimal upgrades to the Harney Substation and the Brasada-Harney-No.1 transmission line.
