We still have the highest regional electricity costs in the United States and impend- ing capacity shortages will be a challenge to policymakers for years to come. ISO-NE has repeatedly warned that 8,000 MW (25 percent) of New England’s electricity capacity has either retired or is “at-risk” of retiring. The region will be challenged to meet its 2020 Installed Capacity Requirement (ICR) without new resources or the repower- ing of mothballed plants. More importantly, ISO’s calculations don’t include Pilgrim () or Millstone () nuclear ANNIE plants, which represent an additional 2,500 MW that some experts have considered to be at risk of closing.
