Winter Storm Fern made it clear: the Northeast urgently needs stronger, more reliable energy infrastructure. Families and businesses shouldn’t face avoidable reliability or affordability strains.

Projects like the Constitution Pipeline are a much-needed energy artery across the Northeast to lower energy prices and reduce dependence on imported energy and high-emitting fuel oil.

Delivering big benefits for the Northeast

  • The project increases firm gas supply by 13%, addressing supply-demand imbalances and winter electric reliability risks.
  • Unlocks the full potential of domestic energy resources.
  • The project will increase system capacity by ~650,000 dekatherms/day. That’s equivalent to supplying 3 million homes.
  • Natural gas has 50% fewer emissions than heating oil.
  • Supports electric grids, which rely on natural gas generation to prevent outages during severe storms.

What it means for consumers: steadier winter heating bills, cleaner communities and a stronger energy backbone when cold weather hits the hardest.
