## Resource

A six-billion-dollar lifeline for New York’s energy future just flipped the switch—but almost nothing’s flowing. The Champlain Hudson Power Express, designed to bring clean Quebec hydropower 339 miles into NYC, has been stuck in limbo since June 1, with power barely flickering. The culprit? Payment terms: Hydro-Québec won’t fully activate the line until July, only sending power during peak demand when it pays off financially. Officials say it’ll be fixed by then, and when fully operational, this 80-year project could power a million homes and a nuclear reactor’s worth of energy—fueling New York’s green ambitions while consumer advocates watch closely to see if this glitch is just a hiccup or a bigger problem.
