FirstEnergy Corporation is investing approximately $28 million to upgrade the power grid in southeastern Pennsylvania, benefiting thousands of residents and businesses in Lehigh and Berks counties. The project involves rebuilding a 15-mile stretch of high-voltage power lines and upgrading components at four substations to enhance grid reliability and resilience. Led by Mid-Atlantic Interstate Transmission (MAIT), a FirstEnergy company, the initiative is part of the broader Energize365 program, through which FirstEnergy plans to invest $28 billion between 2025 and 2029 to modernize its electric grid and support regional growth. Construction on the current project began in August and is expected to be completed by November 2027.
