List of power stations in Massachusetts
This is a list of electricity-generating power stations in the U.S. state of Massachusetts. In 2018, Massachusetts had a total summer capacity of 12,875 MW through all of its power plants, and a net generation of 27,173 GWh.[2] Massachusetts' electrical energy generation mix in May 2020 was 58% natural gas, 12% hydroelectric and 30% renewables. Massachusetts consumes about twice as much electricity as it generates, but is among the lowest electricity consumption states on a per capita basis, as well as on a per dollar of GDP basis.[1]
