FirstEnergy (FE) Transmission LLC, jointly owned by FirstEnergy Corp. and Brookfield Super-Core Infrastructure Partners, has been awarded multiple transmission projects by grid operator PJM Interconnection that are designed to strengthen the electric grid and support regional economic growth. The awards include projects that FET will develop through the Valley Link Transmission Company LLC joint venture with Dominion Energy and American Electric Power Company, as well as projects that FET will develop individually within its service territory. In total, FET will invest approximately $1.25B in the approved customer-focused transmission projects. In addition, FirstEnergy’s Potomac Edison, JCP&L and Keystone Appalachian Transmission Company subsidiaries will invest $46 million upgrading equipment at substations and reconfiguring transmission lines in Maryland, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The projects were proposed through PJM’s 2024 Regional Transmission Expansion Plan open window process and were approved Feb. 26 by the PJM Board of Managers. PJM is the regional transmission organization that coordinates the transportation of wholesale electricity across the 13-state region that includes FirstEnergy’s service territory.
