• Infrastructure has not kept pace with increased demand for
natural gas for home heating, industrial uses and electric
generation
• Since 1990, Americans have increased their use of natural gas
by nearly 7 trillion cubic feet
• Existing transmission pipeline capacity is fully subscribed
• Companies have already reserved 100 percent of PennEast
pipeline capacity
• PennEast will provide locally produced, abundant supply of
affordable natural gas to serve New Jersey and Pennsylvania
homes and businesses
