Buckeye Rural Electric Cooperative members in the New Marshfield area should be noticing a real difference in their electric service reliability. BREC has been upgrading and modernizing its equipment in phases, thanks to longterm planning that accommodates necessary improvements in a financially responsible manner. A new substation is the latest upgrade project to be completed.
The Mineral substation, which was built to replace an aging, overloaded substation, is also attached to a newly rebuilt transmission system owned by American Electric Power, which provides BREC with transmission service. The new substation and transmission system combined should provide exceptional electric reliability for more than 1,200 BREC consumers.
Check out this neat time-lapse video following the build from start to finish!
