Description and the future promises a whole new range of technical breakthroughs at BPA. For the future, equipment is already being fabricated for an ultra-high-voltage (UHV), 1,100-kilovolt prototype transmission line to be installed near Lyons, Oregon. Such a UHV line could carry four times as much power as an existing 500-kilovolt circuit. Advancements in compressed-gas-insulated transmission systems could make under-grounding of lines practical for a number of applications throughout the BPA...
