Gould helped lead several major projects, including the construction of the Pacific Intertie, a major electricity transmission line linking Southern California to the Pacific Northwest, and the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, a 2,200-megawatt power station in north San Diego County. California utility executives said they would have tapped reserve power supplies if they had been told by the Bonneville Power Administration about a malfunction that led to the failure of the Pacific Intertie, which carries power to California and other states. Higgins called Sempra's earlier plans for its own 1,450 MW Granite Fox coal-fired plant proposal for the town of Gerlach, NV, about 100 miles straight north of Reno, "a very unusual thing" because it was focused on building an interconnection to the nearby north-south Pacific Intertie DC line for taking power point-to-point from Oregon generation sources and moving them south into Southern California markets. |
