HALKIRK 2 TRANSMISSION PROJECT
PROJECT OVERVIEW
The approved Halkirk 2 Transmission Project (the Project) is located approximately 13 kilometres southwest of Galahad, Alberta. The Project will connect a customer's new wind generation facility to the electrical grid. The Project will consist of constructing approximately 80 metres (m) of single-circuit 240 kilovolts (kV) transmission line (to be called 9LA16), which will connect the customer substation to the existing 240 kV transmission line. ATCO will require a 34 m right-of-way for the new transmission line.
The Project also requires two (2) new structures on the existing 240 kV transmission line 9L16 to accommodate the connection.
