#LifeInMVT Photo of the Week: Mount Vernon Pepco Substation Ribbon Cutting

Wednesday July 3, 2024

This week’s #LifeInMVT Photo of the Week is actually a #LifeJustOutsideOfMVT Photo of the Week! On Saturday Pepco hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening of its new Mount Vernon Substation. This infrastructure is part of Pepco’s larger Capital Grid Project and will help sustain Mount Vernon Triangle’s continued growth – and that of surrounding communities such as NoMa, Northwest One & Shaw – for years to come.

MVT CID President & CEO Kenyattah Robinson was a featured speaker at the event and helped cut the ribbon with his son Markus to celebrate MVT CID’s decade-long partnership with Pepco on the various components needed to bring the substation to life.
