Overview
Green Substation is an operational electrical substation in the United States, operating at 120 kV. It plays a role in regional grid stability and power distribution.
Green Substation is an operational electrical substation located in the United States, with coordinates 43.077677, -82.497046. The facility operates at a voltage level of 120 kV, classifying it as a medium-to-high voltage substation critical for local and regional power transmission. Operating within the United States, this substation adheres to NERC reliability standards and FERC regulations for transmission-level assets. The 120 kV voltage level is typical for sub-transmission or distribution substations, serving to step down power from higher voltage transmission lines for local distribution networks. As part of the national grid, Green Substation contributes to the reliable delivery of electricity to surrounding communities. Its operational status ensures continued support for industrial, commercial, and residential power needs, reinforcing the resilience of the regional electrical infrastructure.
Environmental context
The substation's location in the United States, with a latitude of 43.077677, suggests a temperate climate zone. Electrical infrastructure at this voltage level typically has a moderate environmental footprint, with considerations for electromagnetic fields and land use. The facility's role in grid stability helps support efficient power distribution, reducing transmission losses and contributing to overall energy efficiency.
