Power problems: The $6B Champlain Hudson Power Express (CHPE) entered full service on July 1…and had issues that same day. The chaos continued, keeping CHPE offline for most of the month.
We are so back: After repairs, CHPE returned online on July 25. Now, the project is expected to meet up to 20% of NYC’s energy needs.
The issue? A faulty section of cable, according to the Canadian line operator Hydro-Québec (which has replaced it). Now, the company is inspecting it to figure out what went wrong.
