The Riverside Transmission Reliability Project (RTRP) is a joint project between Southern California Edison (SCE) and Riverside Public Utilities (RPU) to build a new 230,000-volt (230 kV) electric transmission line, providing the City of Riverside with a second connection to the California electric grid. The project spans parts of Riverside, as well as sections of Norco and Jurupa Valley, and mixes overhead and underground transmission lines. The RTRP plans to build high-power overhead transmission lines in a wind- and fire-prone area along Norco’s portion of the Santa Ana River.
