Operator warns New England power system at ‘heightened risk’ heading into winter
Dec 11, 2021
New England’s electric grid operator warned Monday that power outages are possible if an extended cold snap this winter grips the region and fuel supplies are pinched as demand spikes.
ISO-New England said natural gas pipeline constraints and global supply-chain problems related to deliveries of oil and liquefied natural gas are placing New England’s power system at “heightened risk” heading into the winter.
