The Proposed Super-Highway for Data Centers in PA (Kammer-Juniata Electric Line)
NextEra is proposing a new high-voltage transmission line, the Kammer-Juniata line, running from West Virginia through Washington, Westmoreland and Indiana counties in Pennsylvania. Data center demand is driving the project. People along the route are only now learning about it, and the decisions about the path, the cost and who pays are happening now.
Join Protect PT for a plain-language briefing with two people who work on transmission and utility rates in Pennsylvania.
What you'll learn
Where the line runs, what the timeline looks like and why data centers are driving the demand.
What the line means for landowners along the route, including land use, property rights and eminent domain.
Who pays for new transmission, how data center demand reaches your electric bill and how you can speak up as a consumer.
Featured speakers
Liz Marx, Executive Director at Pennsylvania Utility Law Project.
Daryl Lawrence, Consumer Advocate of Pennsylvania.
Hosted by: Gillian Graber, Protect PT, and Ryan Clover, Halt the Harm Network.
