Murden Cove Substation receives new control house and transformer

We’re making progress on our upgrades at Murden Cove Substation. Earlier this month, crews delivered and placed two new pieces of equipment at the substation, a control house (shown left) and transformer (shown right). We want to thank everyone for your patience while we transported these oversized pieces of equipment. We know traffic delays can be frustrating. 

These upgrades will improve Bainbridge Island’s electric reliability and help us meet customers’ current and future energy needs.  

We expect to complete a portion of the substation upgrades this fall and will return in spring 2026 to finish them. We will continue to keep the community informed of our progress. Thank you for your patience during construction! 

Crews began installing a control house and transformer at Murden Cove Substation earlier this month.
