El Casco System Project
Simulation of subtransmission line looking west from Highland Springs Road.
Customer demand for electricity in the northwest Riverside County area will soon exceed the capacity of SCE's local and regional electric system. To address this growing demand and improve the reliability of the electric system, SCE is constructing the El Casco System Project, which consists of a new substation and the upgrade of an existing electric line.
