What is the Maryland Piedmont Reliability Project (MPRP)?
A major project to create a 70-mile-long 500,000 volt electrical transmission line starting at Norrisville in Harford County, and then crossing Baltimore, Carroll, and Frederick Counties, and ending at the Doubs substation in southern Frederick County. The project will disrupt and destroy private land, farms, homes, and the natural environment. The power will largely be used to support data centers. For some additional information, see this article published by Mike Ruby in The County Chronicle.
