Systems update

Con­struc­tion is under­way on two new sub­sta­tions, Banks Street and Spring­maid, locat­ed in Fort Mill. Through our valu­able part­ner­ship with New Hori­zon Elec­tric Coop­er­a­tive, YEC plans to com­plete this ini­tia­tive by the end of 2025, strength­en­ing ser­vice reli­a­bil­i­ty for more than 3,500 mem­bers in a rapid­ly grow­ing area of our ser­vice ter­ri­to­ry.

York Elec­tric is also invest­ing in upgrades to improve your ser­vice by replac­ing old­er meters with enhanced Sen­sus meters, a tech­nol­o­gy that oth­er util­i­ties use across the coun­try. These upgrades will allow us to take read­ings remote­ly, locate out­ages faster and pro­vide more detailed data on your ener­gy use.

Since Jan­u­ary, YEC and Pike con­trac­tor crews have been steadi­ly installing new meters, with near­ly 7,000 mem­bers receiv­ing a new meter so far. Instal­la­tions are under­way or near­ly fin­ished in the India Hook, Oakridge, Park Place, Tirzah and Alli­son Creek areas, and South Lan­cast­er mem­bers are next to receive upgrades.
