The natural gas pipeline developer The Williams Companies plans another pipeline expansion in Virginia, this time to run from Pittsylvania County to parts north.
The Transco Power Express would supply markets north of the Transco compressor station in Chatham with up to 950 million cubic feet of gas daily, serving “the power-hungry Virginia market,” Williams’ President and CEO Alan Armstrong said last week on a quarterly earnings call.
Power Express would use existing rights of way and infrastructure “to dramatically reduce permitting risk and provide scalability” and is backed by a “significant commitment” from a customer, Armstrong said. The company anticipates it will be operational by the third quarter of 2030.
