FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 16, 2026 NYSEG Completes Upgrades at Cobble Hill Substation in Western New York Substation serves more than 3,700 customers in Boston, Colden, East Concord, and Glenwood Upgrades will improve energy reliability and capacity for customers LANCASTER, N.Y. — June 16, 2026 — New York State Electric & Gas (NYSEG) has completed its upgrades to the Cobble Hill Substation, which will improve reliability, resilience, and capacity for customers in the towns of Boston, Colden, East Concord, and Glenwood. This substation serves approximately 3,700 customers in Western New York. The investment is part of Avangrid and NYSEG’s investment plan to improve grid infrastructure through 2030 to meet the growing energy demands on homes and businesses and protect the community against severe weather events. “This substation was a priority for us because it supports energy capacity and reliability for our customers in Erie County,” said Marc Geaumont, president of NYSEG. “For some time, customers in this community were reliant on a mobile substation to power their homes and businesses. Now that the work is completed, we can use our mobile substation to improve reliability in other communities in need.” The substation is located on Hunn Road and is approximately 50 years old. This spring, NYSEG procured a 56 MVA transformer which will provide the energy load for the community.
