SMUD Substation Receives Recognition for Lighting Installations, Building Design

Sacramento, California-based public power utility SMUD on Aug. 15 reported that its newest substation “recently attracted national recognition for its bold, geometric architecture and innovative lighting installations,” with recognitions from the Sacramento Business Journal, Association of Outdoor Lighting Professionals and the Sacramento Chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineering.

The substation — Station G — was completed in 2023 “and plays a pivotal role in energizing Sacramento’s expanding downtown core with clean, reliable power, supporting SMUD’s commitment to sustainability, reliable service and rates that are consistently among the lowest in California,” it said.

The project was designed by SMUD’s civil and substation engineering teams, Black & Veatch Engineering, Moniz Architecture, Sestak Lighting Design, and was built by Roebbelen Contracting and Wilson Construction.
