In recent years, extreme weather patterns, such as strong winds, extreme precipitation, severe droughts, and unseasonably warm or cold temperatures, have impacted communities. With extreme weather comes heightened risks of tornadoes, ice storms, and forest fires, which can lead to the disruption of power transmission, and loss of power in various regions of the country.
By installing the SOO Green HVDC Link underground the transmission cables will bolster the electric grid to be more resilient in the face of extreme weather and protect communities against disruptions with 2,100MW of reliable clean power.
