Lake Charles Transmission Line
Industrial
The Challenge
To Be Met
Entergy Louisiana is proposing to build a new 24-mile transmission line starting at Rhodes Substation in Sulphur, LA and heading southeast to Solac Substation south of Lake Charles, LA. This project is designed to provide the injection of a new 500 kV transmission source into the Lake Charles area due to the ongoing industrial expansions and associated projected load growth of more than 800 megawatts by 2019.
The Solution
Our Creative Approach
TBS completed all environmental field surveys for this project and is currently engaged in the regulatory permitting process.
