Energy forum Monday in Middle Island

The Affiliated Brookhaven Civic Organization will host an energy forum Monday at 7:30 p.m. at Longwood Library in Middle Island.

Caithness Energy LLC will present information about its Yaphank power plant and other possible initiatives, said ABCO president Deborah Felber. A question-and-answer with attendees will follow.

This month, the Long Island Power Authority will choose between Caithness and another company, JPower, to build what would be LIPA’s next big power plant — a 700-megawatt facility also in Yaphank, costing upward of $3 billion, called Caithness II.
