Application for Presidential Permit and Electricity Export Authorization Wilson-7 Energy Systems, Inc.

Wilson-7 Energy Systems, Inc. (Wilson-7) has applied for a Presidential permit to construct, connect, operate and maintain electric transmission facilities across the U.S. border with Mexico. The proposed facility is a direct current (DC) transmission with an operating voltage of between 600 kilovolts (600 kV) and 1,200 kV. The facilities would originate at a new electric powerplant to be constructed in Hudspeth County, Texas, and cross the U.S.-Mexico border in the vicinity of either Fort Hancock, Arcala, or Indian Hot Springs, Texas. The proposed facilities would be used to supply electric energy to Mexico and unnamed countries south of Mexico. In addition, Wilson-7 seeks authorization to export 6,000 megawatts (MW) of electric power from the United States to Mexico.
