Sticking to the cost of electricity production and cost of electricity to the end consumer.
Positive impact or negative impact on the local coal fired power plants and the local wood powered power plants also.
Access to 1,200 megawatts (the equivalent of the Seabrook Nuclear Power Station) of low-carbon, low-cost, renewable hydro power would definitely help with the power shortage that we sometimes have here in New England.

That's about all that I have on the "Northern Pass".
