RELIABILITY ENHANCEMENT PROJECT
New 230-kV Transmission Lines and Substation
As part of our commitment to ensure a secure energy grid for Florida, we plan to construct a new substation and two new 230-kilovolt (kV) transmission lines in Polk County, Fla. This project will directly connect Duke Energy’s Osprey Energy Center in the city of Auburndale to the company’s high-voltage electric transmission system serving Duke Energy customers and the customers of other local utilities.
Preferred routes have been selected and are shown here. The easement area will be determined by land surveying which will begin in January 2019 and continue for approximately six months. The comments and feedback we received were a vital part of Duke’s comprehensive process for selecting routes for the new transmission lines.
This interactive map is a useful tool for viewing the transmission line route. Features such as search, zoom and measure will allow you to see project details. For additional information and questions visit our project website or contact us at:
