Description
Description | Valley Link is a 765-kilovolt transmission line system proposed by Dominion Energy, Transource, and FirstEnergy to connect a potential nuclear reactor and fossil fuel power plants to serve suburban data centers in Northern Virginia. The project includes a segment from Joshua Falls substation in Campbell County to the Yeat substation in Culpeper County, running over 100 miles through Virginia's agricultural Piedmont. The project aims to maintain grid reliability and support the growing data center market but faces opposition from local residents and advocacy groups due to environmental and land use concerns. |
