PPL Reliable Power

PPL Electric Utilities is strengthening our infrastructure and building new facilities to meet your needs

Flip the switch and the light comes on. It's something we do every day without giving it much thought.

Behind that switch is a complex network of power lines and electrical equipment delivering a safe and reliable supply of electricity – power we depend on to make our homes comfortable, to light our towns and cities, and to drive the businesses and factories that provide jobs and sustain our quality of life.

While many consumers are trying to be more energy efficient, research shows that all of us have more electrical appliances at home and at work than we had years ago.

PPL Electric Utilities works very hard to make sure our systems -- these power lines, transformers and substations -- meet your electric needs – both today and for future generations.

We're investing more than $3 billion over the next five years to improve the electric delivery system – replacing aging facilities and building new ones to meet growth in demand and to make our network even more reliable. And while we recognized that not everyone likes new power lines or substations, we know that everyone wants the lights to come on when they flip the switch.
