San Diego Utility Closing In on Sunrise Powerlink Approval

摘要

Construction on the Sunrise Powerlink-a $1.88-billion, 118-mile, 1,000-MW-ca-pacity power line that would connect urban San Diego with alternative energy sources in the Imperial Valley-could begin in June if the U.S. Forest Service grants final approval. The owner, San Diego Gas and Electric Co., says the line is a key part of California's mandated goal of deriving a third of its power from alternative sources by 2020.
