This project is a proposed rebuild of BPA’s Buckley Substation in Sherman County, OR. It would be a new air-insulated 500-kV substation built near the existing gas-insulated substation, which will be retired.
Justification as BPA states it: Will create additional capacity to support regional load growth, reliability needs and commercial requests for long-term transmission
A planning bundle in BPA's Grid Expansion and Reinforcement Portfolio: status, expected energization and cost change with each cycle; not a permit, a contract or a route. Proposed new or rebuilt substations as BPA published them for its GERP cycle: expected energization year, estimated cost in dollars and status are planning figures at publication; the point is the existing substation yard or the named site.
Map location unavailable. This plant remains part of the source inventory and tables.
