Welcome to ITC! Through our operating subsidiaries, we are in the business of transmitting high-voltage electricity throughout the central United States and for the international markets to our neighbors in Canada. Beginning operations in March 2003, we were the nation's first fully independent transmission business. Today, we are the nation's largest independent electric transmission company. We focus solely on electric transmission, and it is our mission to be a best-in-class transmission provider. We invest in electric transmission to enhance reliability and relieve electric transmission congestion, connect renewable energy resources to customers, and to lower the delivered energy cost to consumers. We are your energy superhighway! Our three operating companies ITCTransmission, Michigan Electric Transmission Company, LLC (METC), and ITC Midwest serve an area of nearly 80,000 square miles in five states. Our service area has a population of more than 13 million people. We operate approximately 15,000 circuit miles of overhead and underground transmission lines, carrying more than 25,000 megawatts (or 25 billion watts) of electric power.
