June 12 (Reuters) - The New York State Public Service Commission approved 29 infrastructure projects worth $636.2 million, enabling 642 megawatts of electrification upgrades, the commission said on Thursday. These projects were proposed by Consolidated Edison (ED.N), opens new tab, Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation, New York State Electric & Gas Corporation (NYSEG), and Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation (RG&E). "The urgent grid upgrade projects would expand grid capacity in many areas of the state, relieving urgent constraints on an accelerated basis while a broader, unified planning framework is developed,' said commission Chair Rory Christian. Con Edison will lead five projects, including the Zerega Avenue expansion and the redesign of the Hunts Point electrical system, adding 380 MW of capacity at a cost of $439.9 million. National Grid will oversee 22 projects totaling $126 million, delivering 184.8 MW of new capacity to support vehicle electrification in upstate New York. Moreover, NYSEG will implement a major industrial electrification project adding 30 MW, while RG&E will expand EV charging infrastructure by 47 MW. The commission said that this action was part of its plan to upgrade New York's electric grid infrastructure and work toward its decarbonization goals.

RWE CEO Could Double US Projects With More Policy Certainty
German energy company RWE AG said it could double its planned investment projects in the US, if there was greater policy certainty. RWE is one of the biggest renewable energy companies in the US since completing its acquisition of Con Edison in 2023. Two months ago, the firm said it would cut €10 billion ($11.4 billion) from its planned investment in green technologies by the end of the decade as projects face higher risks, particularly in the US. The company is currently building 5 gigawatts of capacity in the US.
