description: The Electric Substation geospatial data layer contains point features representing transmission substations and some distribution substations in California. These substations are fed by electric transmission lines and are used to step-up and step-down the voltage of electricity being carried by the lines, or simply to connect together various lines and maintain reliability of supply. These substations can be located on the surface within fenced enclosures, within special purpose buildings, on rooftops (in urban environments), or underground. A substation feature is also used to represent a location where one transmission line "taps" into another. The transmission line, substation and power plant mapping database were started in 1990 by the CEC GIS staff. The final project was completed in October 2010. The enterprise GIS system on CEC's critical infrastructure database was lead by GIS Unit in November 2014 and was implemented in May 2016. The data was derived from utility companies and USGS topographic map, Some of the data was rectified from GE and Platts substation geospatial data. The sources for the substation point digitizing are including sub-meter resolution of Digital Globe, Bing, Google, ESRI and NAIP aerial imageries, with scale at least 1:10,000. Occasionally, USGS Topographic map, Google Street View and Bing Bird's Eye are used to verify the precise location of a facility.; abstract: The Electric Substation geospatial data layer contains point features representing transmission substations and some distribution substations in California.

The California Energy Commission (CEC) Electric Substation geospatial data layer has been created to display the locations of substations in California. It contains point features representing transmission substations and some distribution substations in California. These substations are fed by electric transmission lines and are used to step-up and step-down the voltage of electricity being carried by the lines, or simply to connect together various lines and maintain reliability of supply. These substations can be located on the surface within fenced enclosures, within special purpose buildings, on rooftops (in urban environments), or underground. A substation feature is also used to represent a location where one transmission line "taps" into another. When used in association with the CEC Power Plant and CEC Electric Transmission Lines geospatial data layers, viewers can analyze the geographic relationships with the substation across utilities, counties and state.

The data has been gathered from two sources - internal CEC data and the Department of Homeland Security's - Homeland Infrastructure Foundation-Level Data (HIFLD). The CEC data was created from a project spanning many years and was previously updated in 2016. The data was derived from utility companies and USGS topographic map. Some of the data was rectified from GE and Platts substation geospatial data. The sources for the substation point digitizing are including sub-meter resolution of Digital Globe, Bing, Google, ESRI and NAIP aerial imageries, with scale at least 1:10,000. Occasionally, USGS Topographic map, Google Street View and Bing Bird's Eye are used to verify the precise location of a facility.

The substation data, as one of the CEC's California Energy Infrastructure spatial data will be used to:

1. Support the CEC/STEP/Strategic Transmission Planning and Corridor Designation Office in corridor study and transmission line siting;

2. Support the CEC staffs' various analysis by providing general geographic reference information;

3. Enhance communication between and among government agencies on emergency management, resource management, economic development, and environmental study;

4. Provide illustration of critical infrastructure spatial data to the public or other agencies in hard copy format.

The CEC Transmission Lines geospatial data layer contains electric power lines of transmission and some distribution or sub-transmission voltages covering California. Transmission lines can carry alternating current or direct current with voltages typically ranging from 110 kV to 765 kV. Transmission lines can be overhead and underground; underground transmission lines are more often found in urban areas. Sub-transmission lines generally carry voltages ranging from 33 kV to 100kV. These sub-transmission lines transmit power from higher voltage lines or other bulk power sources to local distribution network substations. An overhead power line can be single or double circuit. A single-circuit transmission line carries conductors for only one circuit. For a three-phase system, this implies that each tower supports three conductors. A double-circuit transmission line has two circuits. For three-phase systems, each tower supports and insulates six conductors. Single phase AC-power lines as used for traction current have four conductors for two circuits. Usually both circuits operate at the same voltage. In HVDC systems typically two conductors are carried per line, but in rare cases only one pole of the system is carried on a set of towers. The detailed descriptions on the structure type, material and circuit can be found at here. If you cannot access to the PDF, you may request us to send you a copy of the PDF.The transmission line, substation and power plant mapping database were started in 1990 by the CEC GIS staffs. The final project was completed in October 2010. The enterprise GIS system on CEC's critical infrastructure database was leaded by GIS Unit in November 2014 and was implemented in May 2016. The data was derived from utility companies and USGS topographic map. Some of the data was rectified from GE and Platts transmission line geospatial data. The sources for the transmission line digitizing are including sub-meter resolution of Digital Globe, Bing, Google, ESRI and NAIP aerial imageries, with scale at least 1:5,000. Occasionally, USGS Topographic map, Google Street View and Bing Bird's Eye are used to verify the precise location of a facility. The data was digitized from pole to pole for greater than or equal to 200 kV transmission lines. For transmission lines less than 200kV, the data was digitized on the pole gaps of approximately 1:5,000 or greater. All the data was digitized based on ground level of where a pole was planted.The transmission line was not digitized with one line segment from substation to substation. GIS Unit will merge the multipart lines into one segment in the future, after consulting with the Strategic Transmission Planning and Corridor Designation Office in identifying electricity flow between substation to substation or power plant to substation. Not all transmission line spatial data ended or started with a substation or power plant point spatial data. However, GIS Unit is current developing power plant and substation boundary spatial data which will enclose most of the transmission lines at both ends.

The power plant locations and characteristics are part of the California Energy Commission’s (CEC) California Energy Infrastructure geospatial data sets. The data is derived from the CEC’s QFER-1304 Power Plant Owner Reporting Database and is updated annually. Among other information, a number of identifying attributes are given for each power plant as well as the generator units at each plant, their energy type, the total nameplate capacity, and their owners and operators.

This California Power Plants data set has identical information to the many tables making up the QFER data set, however this single feature layer is derived by condensing several QFER tables into one. Some fields of the original tables have been omitted, and point geometries, determined by each plants’ address fields, have been appended for geospatial display. Four new fields have been compiled from QFER’s Annual Generation Table. These are listed and defined as:Nameplate Capacity (MW): The total nameplate capacity from every unit that makes up the power plant, regardless of status Units: List of the unit names at each power plant Primary Energy Source: A list of the primary energy sources used by every generator at the plantLast Reported Year: The last year that the power plant was recorded in the Annual Generation Table.Primary Energy Source Descriptions: Source Type Description
