At ATC, delivering reliable electricity is only part of the responsibility of operating the regional electric grid. Equally important is how that work supports the communities that depend on safe, dependable power every day.
ATC’s 2025 Community Investment Report provides a comprehensive look at how the company brings energy that communities count on, through disciplined planning, safe operations, transparent engagement and targeted community investment across its service area.
A broader view of community investment
The Community Investment Report reflects a holistic view of ATC’s role as a transmission‑only utility. Rather than focusing solely on year‑end results or individual initiatives, the report brings together the many ways ATC supports communities over time.
From operating and maintaining critical infrastructure to engaging with landowners and local leaders, ATC’s work is guided by a commitment to reliability, safety, accountability and respect for the public interest. The report illustrates how these principles are applied consistently across planning, construction, operations and outreach activities.
