Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Nearly half of the $7.78 billion in first-quarter 2016 construction starts for the U.S. Northeast Region are connected to power projects. Many of the plant projects being tracked by Industrial Info will be fed with natural gas from the Marcellus and Utica shales, but others involve hydroelectricity and even energy from old tires.

In comparison, projects that were slated for kickoff in fourth-quarter 2015 had a combined value of $5.47 billion. For related information see September 1, 2015, article - Natural Gas, Shale-Related Projects Drive 10 Highest-Value Kickoffs in U.S. Northeast for Fourth-Quarter 2015.
The Northeast region includes Delaware, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania.
Power-related construction starts for 30 projects in the first quarter carry a total investment value of $3.87 billion. Cricket Valley Energy LLC, an affiliate of Advanced Power AG (Zug, Switzerland), is preparing for the start of construction on its $1.4 billion natural gas-fired combined cycle power station, located in Dover Plains, New York. The 1,000-megawatt (MW) plant will include three 200-MW natural gas-fired General Electric (NYSE:GE) combustion turbine engines, with three heat recovery steam generators, and three steam turbine generator sets. Bechtel Corporation (San Francisco, California) is performing the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC). Completion is currently set for the end of first-quarter 2019. For details on this project, see Industrial Info's project report.
Oil & Gas Pipeline Industry projects comes in second place with $1.49 billion in projects set to kick off between January and March. Among the 13 projects is a $1 billion chunk of Sunoco Logistics Partners LP's (NYSE:SXL) (Newton Square, Pennsylvania)'s Mariner East Phase II natural gas liquids (NGL) pipeline, which will move 272,750 barrels per day (BBL/d) from Ohio to Sunoco's Marcus Hook complex in Pennsylvania. Rooney Engineering, Inc. (Englewood, Colorado) is providing design work on the project, which is scheduled for completion in December 2016. For details on this project, see Industrial Info's project report.
Next comes Industrial Manufacturing, with 41 projects valued at $950 million. The New Jersey Transit Corporation (Newark, New Jersey) will spend $176.8 million for the Northeast Corridor Rail System improvement program for 2016. The program includes right-of-way maintenance and equipment improvements. For details on this project, see Industrial Info's project report.
