Overview

To connect Kiwetinohk’s Flipi Gas Generation Project to the grid, AltaLink is proposing changes to its transmission system. The project is located within Clearwater County, approximately three kilometres southwest of the Hamlet of Leedale.

AltaLink is proposing modifications to an existing transmission line, constructing a new switching station and installing underground fibre optic cable to connect Kiwetinohk’s generation facility and substation to the grid. AltaLink’s proposed project includes:

  • building two temporary transmission lines, called temporary bypass lines, to ensure a reliable supply of power during construction
  • constructing a new switching station, called Leedale 1076S
  • connecting the switching station to an existing transmission line in the area, called 922L/926L, by modifying the line at the entrance of the switching station,
  • constructing five new transmission structures and removing one structure
  • installing underground fibre optic cable to connect the Leedale switching station to another existing transmission line called 1325L; the fibre optic cable will require a new right-of-way
