What does extra-high voltage transmission look like? How big are the towers?
Extra-high voltage lines have the capability of providing significantly longer-term benefits to large geographic areas with minimal use of right of way. For example, 765-kV towers are approximately 130 feet tall and occupy a 200-foot right of way, and double circuit 345 kV towers average approximately 150 feet tall and require a 150-foot right of way.
