In electricpower transmission , wheeling is a term used to describe either of the following the act of transporting electricpower megawatts or megavolt amperes over transmission lines, or the act of providing the service of transporting electricpower over transmission lines. Electricpower networks are divided into transmission and distribution networks. Transmission line s move electricpower between Power station generating facilities and Electrical substation substations , usually in or near population centers. From substations, power is sent to users over a Electricity distributiondistribution network . A transmission line might move power a few miles or hundreds of miles. An electric utility that generates power does not have to own power transmission lines only a connection to the network or grid. The utility then pays the owner of the transmission line based on how much power is being moved and how congested the line is. Some power generating entities join a group which has shared ownership of transmission lines. These groups may include Electrical utility investor owned utilities , government agencies, or a combination of these. Since prices to move power are based on congestion in transmission line networks, utilities try to charge customers more to use power during peak usage demand periods. This is accomplished by installing time of use meters to recover wheeling costs.
