Governors Wind Energy Coalition NextEra Is Blocking a Major New Clean Power Transmission Project Source: By Will Wade, Bloomberg • Posted: Sunday, May 23, 2021 The clean electricity giant is moving to squelch competition at the expense of the energy transition. A major new transmission line intended to pipe carbon-free hydropower from Canada into the U.S. Northeast has met a powerful opponent: the world’s largest provider of renewable energy. The 145-mile (233-kilometer), nearly $1 billion transmission line, known as New England Clean Energy Connect, broke ground in February after nearly three years of review by regulators. If completed, it would be able to import 1.2 gigawatts of electricity from the Canadian utility Hydro-Quebec. That’s enough to reduce carbon emissions in the region by 3.6 million metric tons a year, according to the project’s developer, Avangrid Inc., or about 12% compared to 2019 levels.
