34 Control Centers Wheeling power requires the use of transmission lines that are owned by multiple utilities. This use needs to be managed so that power can be tracked as it flows from utility to utility. Utilities manage the operation of generation, transmission, & transmission maintenance from facilities called control centers. Power that is wheeled through a system is coordinated between adjacent control centers. Although there are over 3,000 retail utilities, there are only 140 control centers in North America.
