China: Current HVDC National Grid Plan

Europe: Extended Grid Plan
• From Iceland (Northwest) to Israel (Southeast)= 3,200 mi
• Concept of grid is 25,000 miles of line

The new high-voltage network would range from the Sahara to the polar cap. The concept calls for main lines that are 40,000 kilometers long. And parts of it already exist.

The Location
Tres Amigas Is Ideally Situated in Eastern New Mexico Near the Borders of CO, OK and TX Serving as a Three-Way Interconnection of
WECC, Eastern and ERCOT
