Consolidated Edison will invest nearly $20 billion over the next four years in transmission infrastructure as part of its Reliable Clean City initiative and to mitigate climate vulnerabilities.
The New York Public Service Commission approved construction of a scaled-back version of Consolidated Edison’s proposed Clean Energy Hub in Brooklyn.
NYPSC won praise for its implementation of a law to speed up transmission development, but parties said much work remains in order to meet clean energy goals.
NYISO stakeholders urged "public policy" transmission upgrades upstate, downstate and along the Pennsylvania border during the ISO’s 60-day comment period.
The New York PSC approved EV charging programs for the state’s utilities and $700 million for National Grid for transmission upgrade projects.
Stakeholders urged regulators to defer approval, outright reject or refer to NYISO’s public policy tx planning process Con Ed’s proposal for a new substation.
Con Edison must resolve several regulatory concerns before being authorized to build a new substation in New York City dedicated to interconnecting offshore wind projects.
Preliminary analysis suggests that a mesh-and-backbone network design would be best to integrate offshore wind into the New York grid.
The New York Public Service Commission (NYPSC) voted unanimously to authorize state agencies to procure 800 MW of offshore wind energy by next year.
