By Todd Griset | PretiFlaherty
A
proposed electric transmission line from Quebec into New England took a
step forward this week, as the developer of the New England Clean Power
Link applied to Vermont regulators for key project approvals.
Transmission
Developers Inc. subsidiary TDI New England has proposed the New England
Clean Power Link to bring Canadian hydropower and other electricity to
the renewable-hungry New England market. With an estimated project cost
of $1.2 billion, the 1000-megawatt high-voltage direct-current
transmission line would run under Lake Champlain and underground to a
converter station in Ludlow, Vermont, near where it would connect to the
existing electric grid owned by Vermont Electric Power Company (VELCO).http://breakingenergy.com/2014/12/16/developer-applies-to-vt-for-clean-power-link-transmission-line/?utm_source=Breaking+Energy&utm_campaign=2da6908e62-RSS_EMAIL_CAMPAIGN&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f852427a4b-2da6908e62-407304281
