Description

The project is anticipated to begin September 2026, with a total estimated value of approximately $15 million. The UConn Storrs campus continues to expand in accordance with its Master Plan, and the electrical demand is increasing to a point where both imported, and campus-based production of electrical power needs to be increased to meet forecasted demand. The new 38E connection to the Eversource 900 line will facilitate meeting the forecasted demand.
