Alberhill System Project (Western Riverside County)
Click here to view detailed map (PDF)
Demand for electricity in the Western Riverside County area continues to grow and could soon exceed the capacity of SCE’s local and regional electric system. The increased demand is due, in part, to growth in existing customer demand, and in part, to planned new development projects in the region. SCE projects that its electrical facilities in the area could reach full capacity by 2011. SCE’s existing facilities do not have the capacity to handle the increased demand and load growth.
SCE is proposing the Alberhill System Project to meet growing demand, improve service reliability and operational flexibility by providing the ability to transfer load between substations.
