BESS EPC & Midwest Investor-Owned Utility

Battery Interconnection Project

Project Date: 2023
Type of Client: Utility
Project Region: Texas
Services: Distribution and routing design solutions, interconnection services.

Commonwealth assisted the client with the engineering of new wood poles and the routing of a 24.9 kV interconnection and 480V secondary into an existing substation. Our team designed the initial route and poles using PLS-CADD. The design was versatile and interchangeable with other new interconnections, positioning it for use in future construction projects.

The project demanded a quick turnaround and had tight clearances for pole placement due to existing roads and water lines. Commonwealth collaborated closely with the client to evaluate various solutions and identify the most efficient approach. We quickly delivered a detailed set of drawings enabling the construction schedule to remain on track.

Throughout the process, our team remained engaged and responsive to ensure seamless project execution. This project not only demonstrates Commonwealth's engineering expertise but also our ability to adapt and deliver under stringent timelines and challenging conditions.
