Ironwood Transmission Line
The Ironwood Transmission Line is a proposed approximately 87-mile, 500-kilovolt transmission line that would increase energy reliability in the community and help meet state energy goals. The project would span a portion of Yuma County, Arizona, and Imperial County, California and help provide critical reinforcement of the electric grid in Arizona and Southern California by providing greater capacity on the transmission line to power homes and businesses.
A project for the future
Horizon West Transmission was recently selected by the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) to build and maintain the power line. The proposed Ironwood Transmission Line project is part of a portfolio of electric transmission projects that the CAISO has identified as necessary to meet the future needs of the region’s electric grid. As an existing utility in California, Horizon West has experience working closely with local communities, landowners and key stakeholders.
