We’re building a smarter, stronger, more resilient electric grid to power our customers and communities, today and into the future. Our infrastructure projects across Massachusetts and New York are helping to connect more renewables and enabling the electrification of heat and transportation across the Northeast.
Why does the electricity grid need to be upgraded?
Strengthening and expanding our electricity grid is critical to the future of energy. Understanding how the grid works is key to knowing why these upgrades are so important.
The future of electric networks in New York
New York has established nation-leading energy, climate change and equity goals, which we share at National Grid.
As the largest utility in New York State, we must build for the future to achieve these goals.
It will take innovation, collaboration and policy reform to achieve a resilient and reliable energy future for our customers and communities. We’re ready to do our part - and our work is already underway.
The future of electric networks in Massachusetts
By 2050, the electric network in Massachusetts must meet customer demand forecast to be more than two-times higher than today, as our customers increasingly rely on electricity to power their lives.
As the second-largest utility in Massachusetts, we’re taking action to deliver a more resilient, reliable energy future to 2.3 million customers in more than 240 Bay State towns and cities.
Taking action today for a better tomorrow
We live, work and play in the communities we serve; you are our neighbors. Our values – to do the right thing and find a better way – are more than words, we put them into action every day as we build a fairer energy future for all.
