Cuomo stops new pipelines, demands that National Grid allow new natural gas hookups, and will blame the utility if there are shortages. I hope he does not get away with it.

I see low gas pressures, pilot lights not staying on and the entire gas grid freezing up.

Sounds like National Grid doesn’t have the capacity without the new pipeline.

I hope they get a nice cold snap that stresses the system. This is akin to legislating that Pi = 3. You can do it, but you might not like the results.

Venezuela just needs Cuomo to take charge, and all will be well.

You see - there is no contradiction at all between limiting supply, increasing supply costs with ridiculous politically/enviro regulations, and getting utilities to actually supply the goods.

These lousy capitalists are always holding out on good social-justice causes, the proper marxist response is just to squeeze them harder!!

So, they settle for low/no gas pressure ‘in the system’ when demand is high ... thanks, Mario - I mean Andrew!

And then demands the UTILITY PAY the STATE 36 million dollars in penalties for the “privilege” of not being able supply enough gas through the pipeline network that STATE deliberately restricted.

National Grid should just shut itself down for one week, citing “crucial maintenance issues” related to aging infrastructure.

The bulk of the $36 million penalty that National Grid is paying will also be used to invest in clean-energy initiatives and to find ways to offset customers’ demand for natural gas.

If the customers didn't get hooked up, they would have to find alternatives anyway.

The northeast is a disaster waiting to happen, as large as California and their fires.

There will come a time when a polar vortex will hit the northeast, everyone will need heat and power, and the grid will go down for an extended period. Solar panels won't work covered with snow, and they stop windmills from operating in snow. This will be a life or death situation, and people in the northeast need to prepare themselves.
