(TRES de las preguntas no tienen respuesta en el texto). La primera est resuelta a modo de
ejemplo.
2 Engineers at the Energy Department s Bonneville Power Administration have cut the cost of upgrading the
3 grid with innovative software that helped them build cheaper but sturdier towers for new high-voltage
4 transmission lines.
5 Their new towers are stronger but use less steel. They better withstand winds and storms but are easier and
6 faster to assemble. They are so much sturdier that some power lines may now require fewer towers per mile,
7 reducing their environmental footprint and price, which in turn helps minimize costs for electric consumers.
8 BPA operates about three-fourths of the high-voltage transmission lines in the Pacific Northwest and is
9 building new transmission lines to handle rapidly growing amounts of wind energy.
10 Engineers developed one double-circuit and three single-circuit towers BPA can use again and again. They
11 are about 20 percent lighter than the originals because they use less steel, which also saves BPA as much as
12 $300,000 per tower. They are also cheaper to manufacture, transport and assemble. That adds up to more
13 than $18 million in savings on two new transmission lines the agency is building.
14 With fewer towers required per mile, the savings will grow quickly and easily cancel out the $80,000 cost of
15 the new designs.
16 The modification of a single piece in the largest of the new towers a double-circuit tower that holds two lines
17 will save BPA about $250,000 per tower.
