 You're listening to All Things Considered from NPR News. And you're listening to Maine Public Radio. I'm Robbie Feinberg. It's about 12 minutes before 5 o'clock.

The hope is to help the region handle a far larger power load as states work to reach their climate goals. We'll hear more at around 5.30.
