Ohio Distribution System Hosting Capacity Map
Welcome to FirstEnergy’s Ohio Distribution System Hosting Capacity Map. This interactive map provides estimated hosting capacity for distribution and sub-transmission facilities to help developers identify locations that may be suitable for new generation, load, or battery installations.
Hosting capacity analysis assesses how much additional generation, load or battery capacity can be accommodated by Ohio Edison, The Illuminating Company and Toledo Edison’s (“company” or “companies”) existing system without requiring infrastructure upgrades or equipment changes.
Developers must submit a completed application for company review and approval prior to construction and interconnection.
Capacity Map Overview
- The map offers potential locations within the companies’ systems where generation, load, or battery projects may be feasible. This map should not be used for other purposes.
- Interconnection, net metering, battery, or new load applications in the companies’ queues may take up capacity and not be reflected on this map.
- Single-phase or double-phase sections of the companies’ circuits may have lower capacity than indicated on this map. Networked distribution feeders are not mapped.
- Applications will still be accepted on circuits mapped with no available capacity remaining. The project’s capacity requirements will determine if the application can be approved or if a detailed load study will be needed.
- Service transformers, service conductors, or other infrastructure upgrades may be required to support your project. The need for infrastructure upgrades is determined during the application process, and associated costs are the responsibility of the applicant under Ohio law. Any potential upgrades needed are not reflected on this map.
Disclaimer
The information displayed on the companies’ map is for information and guidance only. All proposed generating systems, loads, or batteries must be submitted to the company with a fully completed interconnection, net metering, or new load application for a comprehensive technical review through the established process. The hosting capacity data displayed on the map is captured as of the date indicated on the map and may not reflect current system conditions. The companies and their affiliates do not guarantee the accuracy of the information on this map.
