#CleanEnergy just got a major upgrade in NY.
@CHPExpress is now delivering emission-free #hydropower from Canada directly to NYC.
NYPA helped make that connection possible, preparing the grid infrastructure in Queens that allows this clean power to flow.

The switch has been flipped and the @CHPExpress is officially complete!
Thanks to the CHPE, hydroelectricity delivered from Canada to Astoria will power 1 million New York City homes with clean, renewable energy. An absolute game-changer in our fight against climate change.
.@GovKathyHochul is now at Pier 17 announcing the completion of the mammoth hydroelectric transmission line starting in Canada & needing in NYC - the Champlain Hudson Power Express.
Nearly 2 decades in the making.

Today I joined @GovKathyHochul as she announced the completion of the @CHPExpress, one of NY’s largest transmission infrastructure projects in 50 years. CHPE brings a transformative volume of clean energy to NYC meeting up to 20% of the city’s needs. nyserda.ny.gov/About/Newsroo…

Infrastructure met community this Earth Week! What’s possible when gov't, private partners, & community like @vbgcq, @hydroquebecIntl, @CHPExpress, @NYPAenergy & @ConEdison come together? Good things like Sky Farm, providing education & 4,500+ lbs of produce to neighbors in 2025.
Our team had a great time at the 2026 @BloombergNEF Summit talking CHPE with our partner @hydroquebec. Special thanks to all of our collaborators, we wouldn’t be here without this team: @NYSERDA, @GouvQc, @NYCDCAS, @ConEdison, and @hitachienergy.
Our team spoke about all things hydropower and discussed how we #builtchpe at @EnergyDialogue’s recent panel with @hydroquebec, former @NYSDEC Commissioner @BasilSeggos, and Dale Bryk from @harvard_and.
Exciting to hear the sound of CHPE being energized for the first time, as project commissioning continues to progress ahead of the start of operations later this spring!
Thank you to the Vermont Boat and Marine Association for inviting us to share a final CHPE Lake Champlain update. We also extend our gratitude to the entire Lake Champlain community for all of the support and help as we #builtchpe
