Backers of a proposal to build 145-mile transmission line to send Canadian hydropower from Quebec to Massachusetts would dole out a total of $258 million in Maine over 40 years if Central Maine Power wins permission to build the line. Included in that amount would be $140 million to help Maine electric customers reduce their bills and $50 million in assistance to low-income residents. The total is $17 million more than was offered in a competing project sited through New Hampshire that dissolved last year.Why doesn't Massachusetts simply put up 7,438 wind turbines in western Massachusetts?
