Item 2.01	Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On December 31, 2004, Allegheny Energy, Inc. (“Allegheny Energy”) completed the sale of a nine percent equity interest in the Ohio Valley Electric Corporation (“OVEC”) to Buckeye Power Generating, LLC (“Buckeye”). In addition, Allegheny Energy Supply, LLC (“AE Supply”), a subsidiary of Allegheny Energy, assigned to Buckeye all of its rights and obligations under the Amended and Restated OVEC Inter-Company Power Agreement (the “New ICPA”) effective March 13, 2006. AE Supply will retain its rights to nine percent of the power from the OVEC electric generating facilities through March 12, 2006.

The aggregate purchase price for the equity sale by Allegheny Energy and the assignment of AE Supply’s rights in the New ICPA was $102 million in cash, $96 million of which was received at closing. The remaining $6 million is expected to be paid after March 13, 2006, following the effectiveness of the assignment of the New ICPA to Buckeye, in the manner set forth in the Stock Purchase and ICPA Assignment Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2004, between Allegheny Energy, AE Supply and Buckeye (the “Agreement”). Proceeds from this transaction will be used primarily to repay debt. The transaction will result in a fourth quarter pre-tax gain of approximately $94 million.

A copy of the press release relating to this transaction is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.3 to Allegheny Energy’s combined Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on November 4, 2004 and is incorporated herein by reference.
