Williams Cos. said it received approval from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to move forward with its Leidy South Project.

Williams said the project will create 582,400 dekatherms per day of additional pipeline capacity and provide enough natural gas to serve the equivalent of more than 2.5 million homes and further enable power plants to convert from coal to gas.

The project will connect supplies of gas produced by Cabot Oil & Gas Corp. and Seneca Resources Company, LLC in the Marcellus and Utica regions of Pennsylvania with markets along the Atlantic Seaboard by the 2021-2022 winter heating season, energy infrastructure company Williams said.
