Eversource Mystic to Woburn Line Project
About
The Mystic to Woburn Line Project will install a new 115-kilovolt (kV) underground transmission line connecting the Mystic substation in Everett, MA to the Woburn substation in Woburn, MA. The line will extend approximately 8 miles, traversing Boston (Charlestown), Everett, Medford, Somerville and Winchester and Woburn.
The Massachusetts Energy Facilities Siting Board (EFSB) approved the Project on March 9, 2017.
