Posted January 30, 2026New transmission line connecting Hydro-Quebec to ISO-NE begins commercial operations ›
Note: Data show net electricity inflows and outflows for the hours beginning at midnight January 1, 2026, to 11:00 p.m. on January 27, 2026, eastern time. Hydro-Quebec trade flows occur at these interfaces: Highgate, Phase 2, and the New England Clean Energy Connect.
Over the past few years, Independent System Operator-New England (ISO-NE) has relied less on Canada for electricity. On January 16, 2026, the New England Clean Energy Connect (NECEC), a 1,200 megawatt (MW) transmission line project, began commercial operation. The new high-voltage direct current NECEC transmission line is primarily intended to increase the amount of hydroelectric power exported from Canada to New England. However, during Winter Storm Fern, New England exported more electricity to Canada than it imported.
