Lake Erie Connector
ITC acquired the development and ownership rights to the Lake Erie Connector from Lake Erie Power Corp. in June 2014.
This will be the first direct connection between the Ontario, Canada electricity market and the PJM network serving the Eastern United States, allowing for the bi-directional flow of power and associated benefits between the two countries.
The high-voltage submarine direct current (HVDC) project will connect Ontario, Canada to the PJM network via Erie West, Pennsylvania, and provide system reliability benefits to both regions.
