What is the purpose of the Northeast Supply Diversification Project?
The purpose of this project is to expand Tennessees system to transport new diversified natural gas supplies by increasing transportation capacity between growing Marcellus supplies and markets in New England and Niagara. Existing natural gas distribution companies and municipal gas systems will potentially have an opportunity to have gas transported by the project delivered into their systems. Electric utilities and major industrial customers can access this important new source of natural gas, also. The project will increase reliability and diversification of natural gas supplies into the northeastern United States, benefiting residential, commercial, industrial, and electric generation customers.
