NextEra Energy Transmission and Exelon Unveil Significant Transmission Infrastructure Project for Pennsylvania and West Virginia
NextEra Energy Transmission and Exelon have partnered to build a crucial 220-mile, 765-kV transmission line across Pennsylvania and West Virginia, designed to boost the region's electric grid capacity by approximately 7 gigawatts while reducing transmission losses by half. This project utilizes advanced technology to facilitate more efficient power transfer, addressing the energy needs of West Virginia and supporting Pennsylvania's ambitious $92 billion infrastructure plan for new power generation, with a final decision expected from PJM in early 2026.
