Project Overview & Resources

A Pipeline with a Purpose: The Constitution Pipeline

Imagine a cold winter morning in New York or New England. Families wake up to warm homes, hot showers, and breakfast sizzling on the stove, all powered by clean, reliable natural gas. Behind this everyday comfort lies the connection, innovation, and energy security to those modern-day conveniences.

Stretching approximately 125 miles from the gas-rich fields of Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania, to Schoharie County, New York, the Constitution Pipeline is more than just a piece of infrastructure.

It’s a lifeline designed to deliver up to 650,000 dekatherms of natural gas pipeline capacity. That’s enough natural gas equivalent to serve the daily needs of about 3 million homes in the U.S. Northeast. This 30-inch pipeline links directly to the Iroquois and Tennessee interstate systems, opening a vital corridor of energy to the Northeast.

But this project isn’t just about supply, it’s about transformation. In a region where the electric grid is under pressure and winters are harsh, Constitution offers a cleaner alternative to heating oil, cutting emissions and supporting a more sustainable future.

Natural gas emits 50% less carbon than fuel oil, making it a smart step toward cleaner air and a healthier environment.

The pipeline also taps into the Marcellus Shale, one of the most abundant and affordable natural gas sources in the country. While electricity prices in New England soar 55% higher than in Pennsylvania, Constitution aims to level the playing field, bringing cost-effective energy to homes and businesses that need it most.

The Constitution Pipeline isn’t just about moving gas, it’s about moving forward.
