Calpine  (FRA:CJ3A) Total Electric Distribution Line Miles Explanation

Distribution lines carry electricity from the substations to the end users for residential and commercial use. Unlike transmission lines, distribution lines are low voltage lines. Longer electric distribution line miles indicate more customers the company would serve, which might lead to more electricity delivery and a higher revenue.

The origin of the electricity that consumers purchase varies. Some electric utilities generate all the electricity they sell using just the power plants they own. Other utilities purchase electricity from others such as power marketers and independent power producers or from a wholesale market organized by a regional transmission reliability organization.

Another similar term is Total Electric Transmission Line Miles. The difference between a transmission and a distribution line is that a transmission line helps in the movement of electricity from a power plant or power station to the various substations whereas the distribution line carries electricity from the substation to consumers.
