Nesquehoning Project

Resilient Transmission System

A resilient transmission system helps us deliver safe, reliable, affordable and sustainable electricity across the region.

 

That’s why we’ve invested in focused upgrades and have continued to innovate and advance our electric grid through transmission projects, like this one, to improve reliability, protect the grid from extreme weather, reduce outages and enable renewable energy interconnections.

Stay Informed

We’re planning to build approximately 7.5 miles of new 69 kV transmission lines along with a new substation in Carbon County.  

 

We will host an informational open house on Thursday, October 2, 2025, at the Nesquehoning Recreation Center located at 335 West Railroad Street, Nesquehoning, PA 18240. A project team will be on hand to provide information about the project and answer any questions you may have. There is no set agenda for the open house and no formal presentations, so feel free to visit at your convenience any time between 6 and 8 p.m. We’ve also established a dedicated email address, NesquehoningProject@pplweb.com, for customers and stakeholder to reach out with questions and comments.
