NECEC

NECEC’s early operation shows limited net new hydropower to New England, with outages and Phase 2 dynamics dampening promised gains and leaving long-run benefits conditional on weather and regulatory terms.

Heat-wave stress test shows grid resilience driven by rapid clean-energy deployment, with Texas solar supplying over 30% of an 83 GW peak, plus regulatory and nuclear developments shaping future investments.

Offshore wind in New England delivered hundreds of MW during a heat wave, cutting oil use and boosting grid resilience, while regulatory headwinds loom for future projects.
