Southwestern Riverside County and the surrounding area have undergone rapid development in the past several years. This growth has led to a significant increase in the demand for electricity throughout the area. Southern California Edison’s (SCE) current forecast shows that projected demand for electrical service in this area will soon exceed the utility’s operating capacity at its existing facilities. The Ivyglen Project would serve current and projected demand for electricity in southwestern Riverside County, the northern portion of the city of Lake Elsinore, and Glen Ivy Hot Springs. The project would also help maintain electric system reliability in the area.
