A transmission rebuild from the Chesterfield Substation to just south of the Tyler Substation in Chesterfield County, and nearly a tenth of a mile of reconductoring into the Hopewell Substation in the City of Hopewell
At Dominion Energy, we are dedicated to maintaining reliable and secure electric service in the communities we serve. This project proposes to rebuild and reconductor 2.9 miles of existing 230 kilovolt (kV) transmission lines that run from our Chesterfield Substation on Coxendale Road to just south of our Tyler Substation, approximately 0.5 miles south of Route 10 (W. Hundred Road) in Chesterfield County. To maintain reliable service for our customers, we need to replace the current 230 kV wires, a process known as reconductoring. This will increase the ampacity, or maximum current carried, on the line. While the new conductor voltage will remain 230 kV, it is a heavier wire which requires us to also replace the structures which carry it. The line will be rebuilt within the existing right of way; therefore, no new right of way is required.
Additionally, we will need to reconductor 0.09 miles of existing 230 kV transmission lines that run outside our Hopewell Substation on Hercules Road in the City of Hopewell. The existing structures are adequate to carry this new wire so do not need to be rebuilt. Therefore, there will be no visual impacts in structure changes. This project will ensure continued safety of the electric grid.
