Windsor Substation

Written By Aspen Environmental Group

Pacific Gas & Electric Company proposed to build the Windsor Substation, a new 115/12-kilovolt (kV) distribution substation in the Fulton-Fitch Mountain Distribution Planning Area (DPA) to provide a capacity increase of 89.1 megawatts. The project is located on Old Redwood Highway in the Town of Windsor in Sonoma County, six miles from the existing Fulton Substation and three miles from the existing Fitch Mountain Substation. The Windsor Substation steps-down power from 60 kV to 12 kV for local distribution. In the future, the substation will be upgraded to 115 kV, and the step-down will be from 115 kV to 12 kV. This project is located on a 4.11-acre privately-owned parcel. The site is zoned Service Commercial and contains some concrete foundations from a previous structure. The permanent fenced footprint of the substation will be approximately 268 feet by 220 feet (1.41 acres). Aspen prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration for this project, and provided construction monitoring.
