Mr. Stern is the CEO of the Neptune Regional Transmission System. Mr. Krapels and Mr. Stern are also principals of the Hudson Transmission project, a 660 MW HVDC system link between New Jersey and New York City, selected by the New York Power Authority, which is scheduled to begin construction in 2009.
Industry News
NEITC and ISO-NE jointly submitted their Operating Agreement to FERC on January 22, 2010. The Operating Agreement (OA) concludes a three year process that included extensive open stakeholder meetings. In a February 2007 declaratory order, FERC found NEITC to be independent and capable of serving as an independent transmission company as described under Attachment M of the ISO-NE’s open access tariff. NEITC and ISO-NE have requested that FERC approve the NEITC Operating Agreement by March 23, 2010. View the filing here.
