Company Submits Offshore Wind Transmission Proposals to Supply New York City

energyRe on June 18 announced that it has submitted multiple proposals, collectively the Clean Borough Power Link, in response to the New York Independent System Operator's New York City Public Policy Transmission Need.

The proposals seek to expand New York's transmission system to bring energy generated by offshore wind power sources to New York City.

The proposals submitted accommodate varying levels of offshore wind injection from wind energy lease areas in the New York Bight and off the coast of Massachusetts.

energyRe's track record in New York includes the development of Clean Path New York -- an infrastructure project combining a new 175-mile, 1,300 MW HVDC transmission line with more than 3,800 MW of new, in-state wind and solar power.

energyRe is a co-developer of Leading Light Wind, an American-led offshore wind project. Upon completion, Leading Light Wind will produce up to 2,400 MW of clean energy—enough to power more than 1 million homes.

Nationally, energyRe's development portfolio includes more than 500 miles of HVDC transmission, 16 GW of utility-scale renewable energy across wind, solar and offshore wind, and more than 155 MW of distributed generation.
