Description

Description

The Valley Link transmission line is a proposed high-voltage transmission project in Central Virginia, spanning approximately 115 miles across nine counties from Campbell County to Culpeper County. It is being developed by a joint venture involving Dominion Energy, American Electric Power, and FirstEnergy. The project aims to meet growing electricity demand driven by data center expansion and increased energy use in the region. The transmission line would require a right-of-way about 200 feet wide and is expected to cost about $1 billion. The project has faced local government pushback due to concerns about land use, costs, and limited local benefits.
