Royal Slope Power Transmission Line Project

Royal Slope Solar LLC, a subsidiary of Clearway Energy Group, has requested a land use authorization license from Reclamation to construct, operate, and maintain electrical power lines and associated access roads on Reclamation-administered land. The 230-kilovolt electrical power line would transmit electricity from a solar power generation facility on private land, across Reclamation-administered land, to the Vantage substation, located east of Wanapum Dam in Grant County, Washington.
