Americans for a Clean Energy Grid released an updated version of its report card, which generally shows improved scores as regions have implemented changes in the last couple of years.

Conflicting political and market forces have created major uncertainty about what the next wave of generation project will look like in New England.

NYISO began what is expected to be a yearlong effort of revising its Reliability Planning Process at a Transmission Planning Advisory Subcommittee meeting.
