Laidlaw’s Berlin Biomass Energy Project Receives Favorable Results
Laidlaw Berlin BioPower, LLC announced today that it has received
confirmation of existing adequate interconnection capacity on the local
transmission system. The confirmation was provided by ISO – New England,
the entity charged with oversight of the local power grid, who conducted
an independent “Interconnection Feasibility Study.” With this important
development, Laidlaw’s 66 megawatt biomass-energy facility took another
important step forward.
Results indicate that Laidlaw’s Berlin BioPower facility will be able to
connect to the transmission system with minimal upgrades estimated to
cost less than $1 million. The interconnection study took into account
all existing facilities as well as projects currently under development
and already in the ISO-New England queue.
Laidlaw President and CEO Michael Bartoszek was quoted stating “We
are extremely pleased with the results of the study as it confirms our
long-standing position that there is sufficient capacity on the system
for multiple renewable energy projects.”
