Baltimore Gas and Electric Company
Baltimore Gas & Electric's Underground Fiber Project will:
- facilitate high-speed broadband deployment to currently unserved or underserved areas,
- improve affordability in already-served markets,
- catalyze lower priced broadband for economically vulnerable communities,
- bolster national security interests,
- and facilitate the provision of broadband service to anchor institutions.
The $30.8 million project, for which Baltimore Gas & Electric is providing a funding match, will consist of 69.9 route-miles of underground middle mile fiber communications infrastructure. This will drive substantial end user benefits. Additionally, it will encourage new last mile broadband providers to enter this market, including those offering low-priced internet access plans.
