Boston, Jan. 25, 2018 -- “We are disappointed that our projects were not selected in the Massachusetts Clean Energy RFP but we firmly believe the Granite State Power Link and the Northeast Renewable Link provide the Commonwealth of Massachusetts a triple-win by delivering the greatest emissions reductions at the lowest cost with minimal environmental or community impact. We are proud of these carefully-designed solutions, which meet the targets of this historic procurement, while providing billions of dollars in economic benefits to the Commonwealth and host communities. Our partnerships with General Electric and Citizens Energy further our commitment to bring broad economic opportunity to Massachusetts. We continue to join with our fellow projects to encourage the Evaluation Committee to provide full transparency into the evaluation process and decision, to ensure public trust in this historic decision. Moving forward, we are committed to advancing projects in our renewable energy portfolio that achieve substantial triple-win benefits for customers and communities.” -- John Flynn, President & COO, U.S. Strategic Growth, National Grid Ventures.
“We will continue to help build important green energy infrastructure and use our profits to serve the energy needs of struggling senior citizens and low-income families,” said Citizens Energy Chairman Joseph P. Kennedy II.
