As power plant owner seeks permit renewal, local groups call for clean-energy transition

PITTSFIELD â With the air-quality permit for a Merrill Road power plant set to expire in October, several local groups want the plantâs owner to consider switching to cleaner alternatives.
Maryland-based private equity firm Hull Street Energy owns the plant at 235 Merrill Road and has filed for a renewal of its permit. But, a coalition of the Berkshire Environmental Action Team and 20 other local groups is concerned about pollution from the gas-fired plant, which sits next to Allendale Elementary School and is within a mile of Pittsfieldâs Morningside neighborhood.
A âpeakerâ power plant, Pittsfield Generating, typically runs only a few days a year, during the highest points of electricity demand. The plant ran just 5 percent of the time in 2019 and 2 percent of the time in 2020, according to research group Synapse Energy. ....

Local Environmentalists Demand Cleaner Berkshires Power Plants

A Berkshire Environmental Action Team campaign Put Peakers in the Past is demanding that the three peaking power plants located in Berkshire County revert to only renewable and clean alternatives. Peaking plants are used to meet periods of high energy demand.

The decades-old plants at Pittsfield Generating Co. on Merrill Road, the Eversource substation on Doreen Street and the EP Energy plant on Woodland Road in Lee run off fossil fuels such as natural gas, oil, and kerosene. Pittsfield Generating is a co-generating plant that also provides steam energy.

Rosemary Wessel, program director for BEAT s No Fracked Gas in Mass campaign, said this sparks concern from environmentalists because the fuels emit excess nitrogen oxides and contribute to the region s greenhouse gas emissions. ....
