Granite Shore Power to Close Last Coal Plant, Plans Renewable Energy Parks Amid Grid Stability Debate

Granite Shore Power, a New Hampshire utility, has announced the voluntary closure of its last remaining coal plant, Merrimack Station in Bow, New Hampshire, and Schiller Station in Portsmouth. The announcement has sparked debate about whether fossil fuels are needed to stabilize the region’s grid. The company plans to build large �renewable energy parks’ at the former coal sites, which will also host battery storage facilities. The agreement provides “economic and regulatory certainty” for the company, according to EPA New England Regional Administrator David Cash.
