New England s $950M Clean Energy Project : CEG

Thu May 06, 2021 - Northeast Edition #10 Lori Tobias – CEG Correspondent The project includes 53 mi. of new transmission corridor from West Forks, Maine, to Canada. Work on a $950 million project to bring clean energy to New England began three months ago and crews have already set a handful of the nearly 1,000 structures involved. The New England Clean Energy Connect (NECEC) project runs 145 mi. from Maine to Canada and is expected to reduce carbon emissions in Maine and New England by 3.6 million metric tons annually as hydropower replaces fossil fuels to provide power to homes across the region. Thorn Dickinson, president and CEO of NECEC Transmission, has been envisioning the day for at least a decade.

Letter to the editor: Say yes to green hydropower and NECEC

Letter to the editor: Say ‘yes’ to green hydropower and NECEC Share For whatever reason, we Mainers say “no” a lot. I urge my fellow Pine Tree State residents to say “yes” to green hydropower and the New England Clean Energy Connect. Hydropower is hardly some new, experimental concept. Maine has a great history with hydropower. In fact, we have the most hydropower of any state east of the Mississippi. However, over the last several decades, we’ve become increasingly reliant on oil and gas from out-of-state companies. Maine is more dependent on petroleum to power our businesses and homes than any other New England state. Let’s diversify our sources of energy with clean, renewable hydroelectric power from the New England Clean Energy Connect and reduce our oil dependence.
