TVA Seeks Approval for $1 Billion Gas Pipeline Amid Environmental Concerns Over Coal-to-Gas Transition Plans

The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) has urged federal regulators to approve a $1 billion natural gas pipeline proposed by East Tennessee Natural Gas, a subsidiary of Canadian energy company Enbridge. The 125-mile pipeline would be used to supply a new gas plant for TVA’s plans to replace a retiring coal-fired plant. The potential coal-to-gas switch has angered environmentalists who argue that the utility should focus on low-carbon power instead. TVA’s plans demonstrate a clear market need for the pipeline, as there is no existing line to service the pending Kingston gas plant.
