The Buffalo News reported on the limited electrical distribution that is affecting the construction of new housing projects in Western New York. Dennis Elsenbeck was interviewed for the story stating, “The system is aged, and it’s near capacity. If you look at Rust Belt neighborhoods, how much do you think utilities upgraded electrical systems in areas that aren’t growing? They don’t.”
The article notes that the problem could worsen with the state’s push toward full electrification of buildings and the increased demand from electric vehicles.
