Case Number: PLN-2019-15417

Project Description: A Conditional Use Permit, Special Permit and Lot Line Adjustment to allow a battery energy storage system (BESS) and upgrades to the existing PG&E Bridgeville substation. The proposed battery storage system would be built on approximately 2 acres, and the Bridgeville Substation upgrades would require up to 2 additional acres. The BESS portion of the project would consist of 20 containers, each measuring 53 feet long, 8.5 feet wide, and 9.5 feet tall, and each containing batteries capable of 2 megawatt hours (MWh) of energy storage; the Project would thus provide 40 MWh of energy storage. The Project includes upgrades to the existing PG&E Bridgeville 115kV Substation to accommodate interconnection of the BESS to the grid including an expansion area, pad, fence, construction of a 480 square foot single-story building, infrastructure, and overhead lines. A Lot Line Adjustment between APNs 207-074-027 and 208-111-014 (which comprise one legal parcel) and 207-311-002-000 is proposed to allow for the 2 acres of substation expansion to be located on the same parcel (APN: 207-311-002) as the existing substation. The resultant parcel sizes would be approximately 78 acres and 4 acres respectively. A Special Permit is required pursuant to the County’s Streamside Management Area Ordinance because the access road crosses an ephemeral drainage. An existing residence is located on APN 207-074-027.
