transmission work underway

AKRON, Ohio, May 20, 2024 -- American Transmission Systems, Inc. (ATSI), a subsidiary of FirstEnergy Corp. (NYSE: FE), has installed approximately 250 new insulators along a 22-mile section of a transmission line that runs through Mahoning and Columbiana counties in northeast Ohio. The new equipment will help ensure the electric grid remains reliable and resilient for approximately 1,500 Ohio Edison customers in the Mahoning Valley.

俄亥俄州阿克倫,2024年5月20日——FirstEnergy Corp.(紐約證券交易所代碼:FE)的子公司美國輸電系統公司(ATSI)已在貫穿俄亥俄州東北部馬霍寧縣和哥倫比亞納縣的22英里長的輸電線路段上安裝了大約250個新的絕緣子。新設備將有助於確保馬霍寧谷約1,500名俄亥俄州愛迪生客戶的電網保持可靠和彈性。

New horizontal post insulators were installed on the 69-kilovolt transmission line, which runs southwest from a substation in Boardman Township to a substation in Salem. Insulators separate high-voltage transmission lines from their grounded support towers and help maintain the safe and consistent delivery of power. The new insulators attach directly to the poles and eliminate the need for crossarms, which were removed.

這條69千伏的輸電線路上安裝了新的水平支柱絕緣子,該輸電線路從博德曼鎮的變電站向西南延伸至塞勒姆的變電站。絕緣體將高壓輸電線路與其接地的支撐塔隔開,有助於維持安全穩定的電力輸送。新的絕緣體直接固定在電線杆上,無需橫臂,而橫臂已被拆除。

Work to replace the insulators began in August 2022 and was completed in March. Several poles were also replaced as part of the $5 million project.

更換絕緣子的工作於2022年8月開始,並於3月完成。作爲這個耗資500萬美元的項目的一部分,還更換了幾根電線杆。

Carl Bridenbaugh, FirstEnergy's Vice President of Transmission: "This new, upgraded equipment will help prevent potential outages and ensure that our transmission system continues to serve customers safely and reliably in the future."

FirstEnergy 傳輸副總裁 Carl Bridenbaugh: “這種經過升級的新設備將有助於防止潛在的中斷,並確保我們的傳輸系統將來繼續安全可靠地爲客戶提供服務。”

The project is part of Energize365, a multi-year grid evolution program focused on transmission and distribution investments that will deliver the power FirstEnergy's customers depend on today while also meeting the challenges of tomorrow. With planned investments of $26 billion between 2024 and 2028, the program will create a smarter, more secure grid that will meet and exceed reliability targets and accommodate electric vehicles, the electrification of homes and businesses and clean energy sources.

該項目是其中的一部分 Energie365,這是一項爲期多年的電網發展計劃,側重於輸電和配電投資,將爲FirstEnergy的客戶提供當今賴的電力,同時也將應對未來的挑戰。該計劃計劃在2024年至2028年間投資260億美元,將創建一個更智能、更安全的電網,該電網將達到並超過可靠性目標,可容納電動汽車、家庭和企業的電氣化以及清潔能源。
