Planning and Expansion
Planning and Expansion Overview
ColumbiaGrid provides single-utility based transmission planning for the combined network of its participating utilities. The goal of this program is to answer three key questions with respect to solving identified transmission issues:
- What should be built?
- Who should build it?
- Who should pay for it?
The participants in the Planning and Expansion program believe the ColumbiaGrid process provides the planning support and coordination needed to get multi-party transmission projects constructed in the region.
