Portion of distribution system with SCADA due to SGIG/SGD program | 7.00% | This project is adding SCADA capability to (26) existing 12 kV distribution circuits. The project will also add SCADA capability to (12) existing 46 kV motor operated disconnect switches in (7) distribution substations and (1) 46 kV pole top disconnect switch. |
Portion of distribution system with DA due to SGIG/SGD program | 7.00% | This project is adding SCADA capability to (26) existing 12 kV distribution circuits. The DA capability for the 12 kV distribution circuits involved with this project will be available, but not implemented as the SCADA functionality is the primary method of remotely operating these circuits. This installation however, will allow distribution automation schemes to be realized if future needs are identified. |

Automated feeder switches | 29 | A key component of this project is the installation of a smart controller that will monitor and restore power to (6) distribution substations if the two incoming lines to the transmission substation serving these substations go out. In order for the smart controller to perform the switching scheme, overhead sub-transmission (46kV) disconnect switches in (8) distribution substations and (1) pole-top line (46kV) switch will require Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) capability. To reduce the risks and complexity of the project, the company’s standard distribution substation SCADA designs are planned to be installed in the (8) substations. The standard SCADA design involved the replacement and/or upgrade of (16) 12-kV outdoor, aisles metal-clad switchgear and to add SCADA capabilities to the exiting (46-12kV) distribution substation transformers. | $587,200 |

* In some circumstances, costs are incurred before devices are installed resulting in a reported cost where the quantity is zero.
* All dollar figures are the total cost, which is the sum of the federal investment and cost share of the recipient (the recipient cost share must be at least 50% of the total overall project cost).
** In some cases the number of entities reporting is greater than the total number of projects funded by the Recovery Act because some projects have multiple sub-projects that report data. View list of sub-projects.
