SUGAR LAND--December 12, 2019--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Historic cold weather in November plunged temperatures below freezing in 75% of the Lower 48 U.S. states, a clear indication as to why the nation needs a strong, carefully maintained power grid. Transmission and distribution (T&D) projects can help to strengthen and expand access to energy in both remote and heavily populated areas. Industrial Info is tracking more than $4 billion worth of U.S. T&D projects that are set to begin construction in the first quarter, about half of which is attributed to projects in states served by the PJM Interconnection.

Within this article: Details on T&D projects that are scheduled to kick off across the U.S. from January through March, including those from companies such as FirstEnergy Corporation (NYSE:FE), PPL Corporation (NYSE:PPL), NiSource Incorporated (NYSE:NI), Ameren Corporation (NYSE:AEE) and American Electric Power Incorporated (NYSE:AEP).
