Shawnee-Walker 69-kV Transmission Line Reliability Project

An evaluation of the existing electric system in eastern Pennsylvania has identified a need for a new 69 kilovolt (“kV”) transmission line along with some upgrades to existing substations to provide additional capacity in the area to accommodate existing and future load growth, provide an additional source of electricity in to the area, and greatly improve the operational flexibility of the electric system in the Project area. The new transmission line will be approximately 30 miles in length. 

The project area includes: Middle Smithfield Township in Monroe County and Lehman Township, Delaware Township and Dingman Township in Pike County, Pennsylvania.
