Ballparks require a ton of electricity, as we all can imagine. In order to meet the power demands in San Jose, if a new ballpark is built, the city would have to pay $30.8 million to move a Pacific Gas & Electric substation. This coming after the Mercury News poll showed that most San Jose voters oppose using public funds to bring the A's South. This estimate by PG&E is not what voters wanted to hear.

The substation move is not to provide power for the ballpark. It's to acquire land for the ballpark. Certainly the ballpark would pull power from the grid and the substation. But that's not an issue in the land deal.
