Will the Sunrise Powerlink provide more access to renewable energy sources?
A. Yes. The Sunrise Powerlink will connect the region to existing and proposed renewable energy sources such as wind, solar and geothermal, located in eastern San Diego County and the Imperial Valley. SDG&E has contracts in place for new solar power projects and geothermal power projects in the Imperial Valley. And more is on the way. However, without the Sunrise Powerlink, much of this clean, green energy could not be delivered to SDG&E customers.
