Susquehanna-Roseland an electric reliability project
Our plan is to upgrade the transmission line that runs between the Susquehanna switching station in Pennsylvania and our own switching station in Roseland, New Jersey. It will follow the right-of-way of an existing line for its entire length in New Jersey.
The existing power line was built in the 1920s and can’t handle the modern load. The experts who manage the regional grid warn that we risk blackouts and brownouts starting in 2012 if we don’t act. Most of the 23 circuits at risk for overload are in New Jersey.
