Transmission projects that will significantly affect system performance and are currently in design or under construction are listed in Table PR-25. Most notable include:

• Constructing the Gardner Park-Hwy 22 345-kV line,
• Constructing the new Hwy 22 345-kV Substation,
• Rebuilding/conversion of Conover-Plains 69-kV line to 138 kV,
• Constructing the Morgan-Werner West 345-kV line and stringing new 138-kV line from Clintonville to Werner West,
• Constructing the Paddock-Rockdale 345-kV line and replacement of the 345/138-kV transformer T22 at Rockdale Substation,
• Constructing the Butler Ridge wind farm, and
• Constructing several Oak Creek generation-related system upgrades.

Because of the number of projects in certain areas, finding sufficient outage opportunities has become an issue. We are striving to more accurately predict the potential cost implications of construction/connection outages and schedule outages to minimize such potential costs.
