Overview

To connect ABO Energy’s wind, battery and substation project to the grid, AltaLink is proposing modifications to an existing transmission line, constructing a new switching station and installing two new telecommunications towers. The project is located within the M.D. of Wainwright, approximately 20 kilometres south of the Village of Edgerton and involves:

  • Constructing a new switching station, called Spalding 1059S, south of ABO Energy’s proposed Spalding Substation within a shared fenced area; the switching station will include two 138 kV circuit breakers, a control building, a telecommunications tower and associated equipment
  • Building two new short 138 kV lines to connect the switching station to an existing transmission line in the area, 749AL
  • In addition to building a new telecommunications tower at the Spalding switching station located in SE 2-42-4-W4, this project also involves building a new telecommunications tower at AltaLink’s existing Edgerton 899S Substation located in SE 11-44-4-W4
