Pembroke Substation
Informazioni sul progetto
In 2019, National Grid studied the electric system in and around Hanover to assess reliability, safety, and equipment needs across multiple substations. The study found that building a new 115-kilovolt substation in Pembroke, which currently has no substation, would best meet local power needs. Building a substation at this location would improve reliability for Pembroke and nearby communities by adding a third transmission supply and connecting to Eversource’s 191 line. The project would also add four feeder ties to improve safety and make power delivery more reliable. Overall, the new substation would provide faster and more dependable electric service, especially by allowing for quicker restoration during outages.
Benefici del progetto
Improved reliability – The new substation will provide safer and more reliable electric service to customers in the area.
Faster outage response – Customers in Pembroke will see quicker response times during outages because crews will be able to isolate problems and restore power more quickly.
Meets growing energy demand – The new 115-kilovolt substation will help meet the growing demand for electricity in Massachusetts.

Fasi di costruzione
-
Preparazione del sito
The first step is removing buildings, trees, and brush as needed. This work allows construction crews to safely build access roads and remove trees that could fall onto the power line.
-
Controlli ambientali
Next, steps are taken to protect the area during construction. These may include placing mats, silt fences, and concrete washout containers.
-
Ricostruzione della linea di trasmissione
New foundations and structures are installed, along with fiber-optic cables and new wires. Old structures are removed, and new wires are energized. Crews use heavy equipment, including cranes.
-
Restauro
Una volta terminati i lavori, le squadre ripristineranno le aree di lavoro alle loro condizioni originali per quanto possibile, a meno che permessi o accordi fondiari non dispongano diversamente.
