Rollercoaster Substation
Rollercoaster Substation will be built to connect a new solar renewable power facility to the electric transmission grid.
Project Overview
Rollercoaster Substation will be built to connect a new solar renewable power facility to the electric transmission grid. The substation will be located off Doswell Road in Hanover County, Virginia, near Kings Dominion. To connect the new substation onto the electric grid, we will replace several structures on an existing electric transmission line that runs parallel to Doswell Road.
Benefits
