On behalf of GreenRoots, Inc. and Conservation Law Foundation, AEC Senior Economist Liz Stanton, PhD filed testimony on Eversource Energy’s proposed East Eagle Street Substation in East Boston with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Energy Facilities Citing Board (Docket No. EFSB 22-01). Dr. Stanton examined Eversource Energy’s rationale and found the company failed to provide sufficient evidence for the need for a new gas substation. Dr. Stanton highlights that Eversource’s justification for the proposed substation has changed over time without providing additional forecasts or data indicating such a substation is necessary to meet current consumer demand.
