特朗普政府取消了向明尼苏达州电力局提供5 000万美元的联邦赠款,用于一个9.4亿美元的项目,使北达科塔和赫尔曼敦之间一条465英里的HVDC传输线路现代化,尽管建设工作已经开始。 The Trump administration has canceled a $50 million federal grant to Minnesota Power for a $940 million project to modernize a 465-mile HVDC transmission line between North Dakota and Hermantown, despite construction already being underway. 该赠款是《两党基础设施法》的一部分,属于能源部终止的总共75.6亿美元的321项赠款中的一部分,该部援引了对供资优先事项的审查。 The grant, part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, was among 321 awards totaling $7.56 billion terminated by the Department of Energy, which cited a review of funding priorities. 这一举动与削减与气候相关的资金的更广泛努力有关,一些官员指出,受影响的州于2024年投票支持Kamala Harris。 The move is linked to broader efforts to cut climate-related funding, with officials noting affected states voted for Kamala Harris in 2024. 明尼苏达州电力公司(尚未正式通知)计划在30天内提出上诉,并强调该项目在提高电网可靠性和支持可再生能源一体化方面的作用。 Minnesota Power, not yet formally notified, plans to appeal within 30 days and emphasizes the project’s role in improving grid reliability and supporting renewable energy integration. 升级的目的是将传输能力从500兆瓦增加到900兆瓦,今后有可能达到1 500兆瓦。 The upgrade aims to increase transmission capacity from 500 to 900 megawatts, with future potential to 1,500 megawatts.
