Otmane El Rhazi : Northern Maine considers options to gain direct access to New England electric grid

Otmane El Rhazi from Today in Energy.



Northern Maine is a unique power market: Unlike any other part of the Lower 48 states, this region is connected to one of the 3 main power grids serving the United States and Canada only via transmission lines that run through Canada. Currently, grid operators are considering transmission options to give northern Maine direct links to the rest of New England in an effort to enhance reliability and expand access to electricity markets.
