The American Electric Power's (AEP's) Buckrun Switch to West Crawford 69 kV Transmission Line Rebuild Project will rebuild approximately 6.12 miles of existing linear transmission line infrastructure generally within its existing 60-foot-wide right-of-way (ROW) between the existing Blanchard Station and West Crawford Station (main line) and between the main line and South Vanlue Station, in Hancock and Wyandot counties, Ohio.
Funding will support the project team's small-scale research and development of smart screens that can automatically control fluid flow in enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) based on temperature by overcoming the challenges of premature thermal breakthrough and non-uniform heat extraction by enabling autonomous, temperature-based flow control without complex electronics or chemical treatments.
