“We’ve reached an exciting milestone in our transition to clean energy with the completion of the new state-of-the-art substation at Gordon Road in Rotterdam,” said Lieutenant Governor Delgado. “Transmission infrastructure is a critically important element of our clean energy future and this project will ultimately help power New York’s homes and businesses across the state when fully completed.”
Lieutenant Governor Antonio Delgado viewed the project’s progress at its new Gordon Road substation today along with New York Power Authority Interim President and CEO Justin E. Driscoll, LS Power CEO Paul Segal and President and CEO of the New York Independent System Operator Rich Dewey. They were joined by additional state energy and environment representatives.
LS Power CEO Paul Segal said, “Energizing the Gordon Road substation and reaching the mid-way point of the Central East Energy Connect project is a major accomplishment for the LS Power and NYPA teams and we look forward to completing the project in late 2023. LS Power is excited to apply its experience in developing and operating transmission infrastructure to execute efficient, cost-effective solutions that help advance New York State’s clean energy transition.”
President and CEO of the New York Independent System Operator Rich Dewey said, “This milestone with the Central East Energy Connect brings the state and our electric system that much closer to our decarbonization goals while improving reliability. The New York Independent System Operator has long advocated for additional transmission capacity as crucial to the grid of the future and the delivery of clean energy to consumers. The New York Independent System Operator is proud to have collaborated with LS Power and the New York Power Authority on this important project.”
This is part of a larger buildout of transmission projects across the state, including more than 1,000 miles of planned transmission investments that will create opportunities to maximize the use of renewable energy for parts of the state that currently heavily rely on fossil fuel plants. The New York State Public Service Commission approved a Certificate of Environmental Compatibility and Public Need for the Central East Energy Connect project in January 2021.
Two new major transmission and renewable energy projects, which were selected by Governor Hochul last year to help transport clean energy to New York City, are on deck and awaiting permitting: Clean Path New York, a project developed through a collaboration between the New York Power Authority and Forward Power (a joint venture of Invenergy and energyRe) which recently filed its Article VII application; and the Champlain Hudson Power Express Transmission Project developed by Transmission Developers Inc.
Assemblymember Michael J. Cusick said, “Investing to upgrade the infrastructure of our transmission lines will serve our State well into the future as we continue to strive toward reaching our renewable energy goals. Creating efficient electric transmission capacity will be key to achieving those goals.”
Assemblymember Angelo Santabarbara said, “I’m excited to see the new state-of-the-art Gordon Road substation come online in my hometown of Rotterdam to help move us towards lower emissions and cleaner energy. These investments into our energy grid not only support our infrastructure needs but also bring more jobs and new opportunities to our area, making it a win-win for our community.”
Assemblymember Patricia Fahy said, “New York continues to light the way when it comes to building a green, modern economy powered by clean and renewable energy that supports good-paying jobs. This project continues New York’s progress towards meeting our climate mandates and reducing our reliance on fossil-fuels, while building climate resiliency and creating hundreds of good-paying construction jobs. I commend Governor Hochul for her commitment to addressing climate change and transitioning our energy grid to one that is truly clean, green, and renewable.”
Chair of the Schenectady County Legislature Anthony Jasenski said, “As a center for energy innovation, Schenectady County is proud to be a part of this project and home to the new Gordon Road Substation. This upgraded energy pathway will help deliver renewable energy to homes, businesses and municipalities across the state, much like our 25-megawatt Schenectady County Solar Energy Consortium powers all nine of our local municipalities, while providing a cleaner future for our families.”
