A major player in the deregulated sustainable energy market, RPA Energy connects natural gas and electricity customers to affordable energy options derived from renewable sources. RPA Energy serves seven states across the northeastern United States.
The Northeast region has put considerable effort into reducing carbon emission levels and increasing reliance on clean energy. Overall, Americans in the Northeast hope to derive more than 50 percent of their energy from renewable sources by 2030. This can be achieved through several major infrastructure projects.
Between 2015 and 2017, the Northeast established its first offshore wind farm. Planned expansions will increase the region’s wind capacity by more than 600 megawatts. During the same period, the number of solar-energy grids nearly tripled. A massive transmission project approved in early 2021 will connect the Massachusetts grid to a hydropower plant in Quebec, Canada.
