SurveysVermont Electric Power Company needs your input: What is the Vermont Long-Range Transmission Plan, And why should you participate? The electric transmission system plays a critical role in powering Vermont’s communities. Electric transmission lines serve as electron highways, transporting electricity from generation sources to Vermont’s eighteen distribution utilities that then supply homes and businesses with the energy they need. We value the input of Vermonters in shaping this plan and invite all who are interested in joining any of our four public outreach meetings. Your contributions will make the plan stronger and more reflective of Vermont's needs. We look forward to hearing from you and working together to ensure a reliable, resilient, and affordable energy future for Vermont. For more information, go to: Vermont-long-range-transmission-plan |
