Nature of Business:

(1)  Allegheny Energy, Inc.  holds
     directly all of the outstanding
     securities in AYP Capital, Inc.

(2)  AYP Capital, Inc. holds directly
     all of the outstanding securities in
     Allegheny Energy Solutions, Inc.

(3)  Allegheny Energy Solutions, Inc.
     marketed electric power generation
     within the scope of the Pennsylvania
     retail customer choice pilot program.
     Allegheny Energy Solutions, Inc. also
     offered products and services,
     complementing energy sales, to meet the
     needs of both business and residential
     customers.  Allegheny Energy Solutions,
     Inc. will cease operations as an
     electric generation supplier and will
     discontinue supplying generation
     services upon January 1999 customer
     meter reading dates.

NOTE:  Allegheny Energy Solutions, Inc. (Solutions)
       and Duquesne Energy Partners, Inc. (DEP) 
       signed an Operating Agreement on November 18,
       1997 to form a limited liability corporation,
       Allegheny Energy Solutions, LLC (LLC).  LLC was
       incorporated in 1998.  Solutions and DEP each
       hold a 50% interest in LLC.  At the time LLC
       was formed, it was anticipated that LLC would
       market power under the Pennsylvania retail 
       customers choice pilot program and provide
       other complementary energy services.  An
       application was made to the Pennsylvania 
       Public Utility Commission to transfer
       Solutions' license to market power under the
       Pennsylvania retail customer choice pilot
       program to LLC.  However, an order was never
       issued.
