Great shot! That’s nearby to Port Jeff harbor, right?
That’s Northport. Port Jeff is about 15 miles to the east.
Actually those four stacks are about ten miles to the west of Port Jefferson…it’s called Northport Power Station, owned by National Grid since 2007. The Long Island Replacement cable project, three 150 MW cables operating at 138 kV, connect the transmission grid on Long Island with the transmission system owned and operated by Eversource Energy, at the Norwalk Harbor substation on Manresa Island in South Norwalk.
