Episode Details

New Hampshire’s dream of going solo from the regional power grid just got a reality check: while technically possible, ditching ISO New England would cost a fortune and saddle the state with massive new responsibilities. The $230K report warns that independence means losing efficiency, taking on grid management duties, and risking legal headaches—especially since neighboring states like Maine rely on New Hampshire’s transmission lines. Instead of a full break, experts suggest pushing for reforms within the ISO, echoing what Maine and Connecticut already did. Bottom line? Staying in the regional system, despite frustrations, remains the smarter, cheaper choice.
