ATSI, a FirstEnergy Subsidiary, Expands East Akron Substation for Improved Reliability
American Transmission Systems, Inc. (ATSI), a subsidiary of FirstEnergy Corp., is undertaking significant upgrades and modernization efforts at a substation in East Akron. This initiative aims to enhance the reliability and resilience of electric service for approximately 12,000 Ohio Edison customers, including critical establishments like Summa Akron City Hospital. The project is part of FirstEnergy's broader Energize365 program, a $28 billion investment plan designed to modernize the electric grid. Key improvements include the installation of gas-insulated switchgear, enabling the system to automatically detect and address power issues, reducing the duration and frequency of outages. This expansion, which increases the substation's area to about 176,000 square feet, promises a more secure and efficient energy supply for the region.
