Surcharge likely would have had little impact on cost of electricity for New Yorkers.

Dennis Elsenbeck was interviewed for a Spectrum News story covering Ontario’s threat to charge an extra 25% on the power it sends to New York, Michigan and Minnesota. Dennis note that the surcharge would likely have little impact on New Yorkers because the net imports are a small portion of NY’s bulk electric system.
