– The 320-kV direct-current line connects to the New England Clean Energy Connect (NECEC) line in Maine.

– The New England Clean Energy Connect (NECEC) is the largest clean energy project in New England. Once the transmission line is in service, it will deliver 1,200 megawatts of clean, reliable power from Canada to Maine and the region.

– The NECEC project will reduce energy costs, enhance reliability and contribute to greenhouse gas reduction requirements. This project represents a fundamental shift away from fossil fuels.
