Project Manager, New River Electrical Corp.“Knowing very little about underground transmission, this conference peaked an interest to learn more.”
Engineer 2, Pepco“EUCI workshops are always an outstanding way to learn and share knowledge about current trends in the energy sectors.”
Environmental Specialist, Ecology& Environment Inc.“A great conference that introduces attendees to other professionals in the field.”
Project Engineer, Electrical Consultants Inc.“The EUCI UG conference is a great tool to introduce new UG affiliates to the field as well as expand the knowledge of the most senior affiliates.”
Transmission Engineer, Dominion PowerThe desire for undergrounding transmission has never been higher resulting from the need to increase a system’s reliability, resiliency, and community preference. Operators and owners that have underground transmission understand the challenges they face efficiently operating underground systems and constructing them in the first place. This conference, hosted by Eversource, will bring together utility professionals to discuss and share detailed best practices for underground transmission design, construction, and operation, while also highlighting environmental, siting, and maintenance issues. Register today to network with your peers and gain valuable experiential knowledge on these complicated systems.

CHPE is a 339-mile underground and underwater HVDC transmission line delivering 1,250 MW of clean, renewable Quebec hydropower from the U.S. border to Astoria, Queens in the heart of New York City. After over a decade of development efforts, 3 ½ years of engineering, equipment manufacturing, construction, and 4 months of testing and commissioning, the CHPE project went into commercial operation on May 13, 2026. This presentation will review the challenges and successes of the project.

Feeder 69M36 opened automatically after a construction contractor saw-cut the feeder pipe, causing the loss of nitrogen pressure to the atmosphere. Eleven minutes later, the feeder experienced a single-phase fault and opened automatically. Approximately 80 gallons of water were drained from the feeder. Discussion topics include feeder drying, fault location, and repair activities.

Fluid-filled cable system leaks can be difficult to identify in their early stages, often resulting in delayed investigations and repairs. This presentation shows an innovative approach that leverages existing flow meter data to detect abnormal oil replenishment trends and provide early indication of potential leaks. Through real-world applications and lessons learned, attendees will see how flow monitoring can improve leak detection, support proactive maintenance decisions, and enhance overall system reliability.
Rocky Koehler Jr. Transmission Lines Engineering Manager - Transmission Reliability ComEd
This presentation will examine the environmental challenges associated with releases from high-pressure fluid-filled (HPFF) cables, including the containment, recovery, and cleanup of insulating fluids that escape into surrounding soil, groundwater, and nearby waterways.
Tim Montague Sr. Environmental Coordinator Eversource
This presentation starts with an introduction to the fundamentals of thermal grouting, including an overview of the market. Using case studies of projects ranging from Miami to Milwaukee, it then dives deep into the conflicting desires and constraints that make thermal grouting significantly more challenging and costly than non-thermal grout installations. Attendees will gain an understanding of the mechanics of thermal grouting from a manufacturer/installer’s perspective, focused on balancing the constraints of physics against the desire for the lowest 0% moisture rho possible.
