As businesses expand, housing creation is encouraged, and communities pursue electrification initiatives, access to electric infrastructure is becoming an increasingly important factor in economic development and municipal planning.

Recognizing the growing importance of this issue, the Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA) has launched a series of initiatives intended to improve the process by which new residential, commercial, industrial, and municipal projects connect to the electric grid.

On June 2nd, the 495/MetroWest Partnership's Energy and Sustainable Development Committee hosted Melissa Lavinson, Executive Director of EEA's Office of Energy Transformation, for a discussion of ongoing efforts to address electric grid connection challenges and improve coordination among utilities, municipalities, developers, and businesses.
