US Constitution Pipeline revival efforts
Overview
The U.S. Department of Energy has announced up to $42 million in funding to advance the proposed 125-mile Constitution Pipeline, which is intended to transport natural gas from Pennsylvania to New York and New England.
To secure this funding, the administration is invoking the Defense Production Act to strengthen industrial capabilities deemed essential to national defense. The allocation is intended to cover pre-construction and permitting activities, including engineering, site preparation, and environmental reviews. Officials stated the project aims to lower electricity and home heating costs while reducing the risk of blackouts during periods of high demand.
The pipeline was originally approved by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in 2014 but was abandoned in 2020 after New York regulators denied a critical water-quality certification due to environmental concerns.
