Bayonne Energy Center is a power plant on Constable Hook in Bayonne, New Jersey originally built as a joint venture between Hess Corporation and ArcLight Capital Partners.[1][2][3] it is operated by EthosEnergy.[4]
The 644-megawatt natural gas-fired plant came on line in 2012.[5] It connects to a 6.5 mile, 345-kilovolt power line under the Upper New York Bay connecting with a Consolidated Edison substation in Gowanus in Brooklyn, New York[6][7] which is the longest XLPE cable in the world.[8][9]
The submarine cable portion of the project is one of the most deeply buried submarine cables at 15 feet below New Jersey-New York Harbor bottom. On behalf of the Project, regulator permit applications were prepared and submitted to the New York State Department of Public Service (Article VII), the US Army Corps of Engineers New York District (Sections 10/404), the New York Department of Environmental Conservation, the New York Department of State, and the New York Office of General Services.[10]
In 2014, Hess relinquished it interest in the plant to ArcLight.[11] which later sold it to Macquarie Infrastructure Company.[12] The current owner, a Morgan Stanley investment fund, purchased the plant in 2018.[13]
In 2018, a 120-megawatt expansion (Bayonne Energy Center II) came online.[14] Bayonne Energy Center II was one of the three natural gas-fired plants in the New York metropolitan area that came online to support electricity needs before the decommission of the last nuclear reactor of the Indian Point Energy Center in 2021. The other two plants were Cricket Valley Energy Center (1,100 MW) and CPV Valley Energy Center (678 MW).[15][16]
