The Northeast Natural Gas Pipeline Project may begin this year: Energy Secretary
Energy Secretary Chris Wright could be revived in the New York natural gas pipeline proposed by President Donald Trump, and “Morning with Maria.”
Energy Secretary Chris Wright On Friday, he said work on the proposed pipeline to bring natural gas to New York and helping to supply energy to New England could begin by the end of this year.
Wright said in the arrival of Fox Business Network “Morning with Maria” He believes that the so-called constitutional pipeline, along with other unspecified pipelines, is “very likely” to move forward this year.
The constitutional pipeline brings natural gas from Pennsylvania to a hub near Albany, New York, where it is routed to New England via other pipelines. The project was blocked by the state of New York in 2020 when it denied the company the necessary permit amid opposition from environmental activists.
“It’s just a victory, a victory, a victory. This reduces the costs of people in the New York area. Not just the costs of New England, it’s a big deal. This is a big deal. Old houses are heated with fuel oil. Natural gas is very cheap and burns cleaners,” Wright said. “Of course, electricity prices have also been reduced. Of course, everyone is rooting for it, allowing businesses in New England and New York City to expand and grow their businesses and grow more jobs.”
