Clean Air Task Force 33d ago

Public financing has the potential to deliver billion-dollar savings to New England ratepayers as the region invests in the build-out and modernization of its power grid. Clean Air Task Force (CATF) and Acadia Center partnered with Power Advisory and Joshua Macey of Yale Law School to examine the potential for ratepayer savings from public transmission financing and identify promising pathways for implementation. During this webinar, CATF, Acadia Center, and our partners Peter Shattuck from Power Advisory and Joshua Macey from Yale Law School discuss the findings of our analysis, present legal considerations for implementation, and explore varied and flexible pathways for New England to leverage public financing mechanisms and public-private partnerships. We hope this research provides policymakers, regulators, and other key stakeholders a tool in the toolbox to manage affordability challenges while developing a more reliable, secure, and clean grid.
