The company that owns the South Coast site of a former coal-burning power plant on Monday outlined plans to transform the 300-acre parcel into a clean energy center.

Michael Jansen is challenging longtime 13th Bristol State Representative Tony Cabral for the seat in Boston.

Massachusetts could produce more energy from offshore wind than any other state, according to a new report from the Environment Massachusetts Research & Policy Center.

Eversource line and tree crews, working non-stop alongside hundreds of out-of-state utility workers from as far as Florida, Arizona, and Louisiana, continue working to restore power to hundreds-of-thousands of customers following yesterday’s latest round of severe weather.

Over 10,000 Eversource customers on the Southcoast remain powerless after Tuesday's powerful Nor'easter.

As blizzard conditions knocked out power to about a quarter million Massachusetts homes and businesses Tuesday, power crews were kept out of bucket trucks and away from power lines by heavy snow and high winds. One utility says it could be days until power is fully restored.

The third storm to hit Massachusetts in less than two weeks is causing widespread power outages.

Most residents on the Southcoast that are still without electricity should see their power restored by tonight, although some exceptions may be possible.

Together with hundreds of private tree and line crews, Eversource employees have converged on Southeastern Massachusetts, with the goal of substantially completing the restoration effort by Tuesday evening.

Both Eversource and National Grid expect all of their customers to have their power restored by Friday night at the very latest.
