Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Exelon Corporation (NASDAQ:EXC) (Chicago, Illinois), the self-described largest transmission and distribution (T&D) utility in the U.S., is on track to meet its $6.9 billion capital investment goal for this year, company executives said this week.
Exelon, which completed the separation from Constellation Energy Corporation (Baltimore, Maryland)--its former power generation and competitive energy business--this year, has targeted $29 billion in T&D capital expenditures from 2022 to 2025 to meet customer growth.
Exelon serves 10 million customers in the U.S., and includes six T&D-only utilities. Its areas of service include four major metropolitan areas: Chicago, Illinois; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Baltimore, Maryland, and Washington, D.C. For first-quarter 2022, the company reported $634 million in adjusted operating earnings, compared with $542 million in first-quarter 2021.
During the company's first-quarter earnings conference call on Monday, Chief Financial Officer Joseph Nigro highlighted the upgrade of the 230-kilovolt (kV) Harvard Substation in the District of Columbia by Exelon's subsidiary, Pepco (Washington). The project, now under construction, "will renovate ageing infrastructure originally installed over a century ago to improve the grid reliability and resiliency," he said, adding it will expand regional transmission capacity to support future load growth in the region. Completion is expected in 2023. Subscribers to Industrial Info's Global Market Intelligence (GMI) Power Project Database can click here for the related project report.
