NYISO’s draft 2025-2034 Comprehensive Reliability Plan shows a wide range of possible scenarios for resource adequacy in New York, with the most negative outlook showing a deficit of up to 10 GW by 2034.

The construction of new data centers could lead to transmission line overloads in the Bay Area, CAISO forecasts show.

ERCOT’s Board of Directors approved staff’s recommended methodologies for acquiring minimum ancillary service requirements in 2026, despite concerns over conservative operations and target procurement levels.

U.S. Reps. Scott Peters (D) and Andy Barr (R) introduced the SPEED and Reliability Act, which is meant to speed up the siting and permitting of transmission lines.

Democrats introduced a FERC-heavy bill to control electricity costs, House Energy & Commerce Committee Republicans tout bills passed out of committee, DOE returns $13 billion and some details from the Dallas Fed survey.

MISO has slashed earlier renewable energy estimates and boosted natural gas contributions in its transmission planning futures in a rethink brought on by the Trump administration’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

In New England, rules governing how new resources connect to the regional grid limit full use of the system’s potential. Precious “surplus” capacity can and should be leveraged to interconnect new, low-cost clean energy technologies to deliver more reliable, affordable power, says Alex Lawton.

SPP says accelerating load projections will result in a 2025 transmission plan that dwarfs the previous year’s record $7.65 billion portfolio — so much so that it is considering deferring some projects until 2026.

Utilities face significant forecasting risks from large loads, prompting the industry to develop various strategies to eliminate speculative projects, experts said during a Western Interstate Energy Board webinar.
