For Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC (“Oncor”) to continue to provide safe and reliable electric service in the area, a new transmission line must be constructed between the proposed Wofford Point of Interconnection (POI) and the proposed Berryville Point of Delivery (POD). The proposed Wofford POI will be located approximately 0.8 miles east of Frankston, Texas, and served by an adjacent proposed switching station to be built by Rayburn Country Electric Cooperative. The proposed Berryville POD will be located roughly 0.1 miles west of Lake Palestine and 1.1 miles south of Berryville, Texas, serving an adjacent customer substation. The proposed project would construct a new single-circuit, 138 kV transmission line approximately 2.0 miles in length, if approved by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (“PUCT”). The Proposed Transmission Line Project is currently planned for completion in 2025.
Voltage and Structure Type - The project includes a new single-circuit 138 kV transmission line constructed on steel monopoles.
