About the project
PGE is proposing a new transmission project to help meet Oregon’s growing energy needs, enable development of more renewable power projects, and enhance reliability of the region’s electrical grid. The project would connect new and existing electricity power sources east of the Cascades to the Willamette Valley. Learn more about the Cascade Crossing Transmission Project.

Upcoming events: Project open houses
Please join PGE at one of these open houses to share your thoughts and get answers to your questions about the project, the study corridors under consideration and their potential impacts. This is the first of several opportunities you will have to provide input on the project. We would appreciate your feedback at this early stage.

At the open houses, PGE staff will share maps showing potential study corridors in more detail. We want to hear from property owners, community members and others as we work to identify more specific routes within the corridors. We will be available to answer any questions you might have about the project.
