BHE U.S. Transmission

Moving Forward

Committed to long-term ownership and acquisition of transmission assets, BHE U.S. Transmission builds upon the significant operational and ownership experience gained by Berkshire Hathaway Energy through its businesses’ ownership of existing electric transmission systems. Because of this experience, they are able to provide cost-effective, reliable transmission solutions for wholesale customers.

 

BHE U.S. Transmission, along with subsidiaries of American Electric Power Company, indirectly owns a 50% interest in Electric Transmission Texas. ETT owns and operates electric transmission assets in the Electric Reliability Council of Texas. BHE U.S. Transmission also indirectly owns a 25% interest in the Prairie Wind Transmission project in Kansas.
