FERC rejected a rehearing request of its order approving SPP’s proposed one-time accelerated study of shovel-ready interconnection requests, sustaining its original 2025 decision.

Stakeholders have several lingering questions as MISO continues to draw up a “zero-injection” avenue for large loads with planned on-site generation.

Stakeholders told MISO it might have anticipated an impending cost increase for a long-range transmission project in the works in Minnesota that jumped about 43% in price to nearly $1.4 billion.

The United Kingdom has found success with a cap-and-floor model for transmission where interconnectors to other countries are guaranteed minimum revenues, but return earnings over the cap to customers.

Seattle City Light presented its proposal for the Bonneville Power Administration’s overhaul of the transmission planning process, saying the agency should offer interim conditional firm service to most developers in the 61-GW transmission service queue.

SPP stakeholders have overwhelmingly endorsed a conditional interconnection process for large loads that will be paired with two other FERC-approved processes.

FERC approved SPP tariff additions that deploy novel study processes to quickly review requests for “high-impact” large loads seeking to interconnect to its system.

Some of the Bonneville Power Administration’s proposals aimed at resuming transmission planning processes risk pushing study timelines to the point where the agency’s customers could run afoul of clean energy targets in Washington and Oregon, stakeholders say.

The Organization of PJM States Inc. presented PJM's Transmission Expansion Advisory Committee with a set of assumptions for the RTO's planning process reflecting state legislation and policies.
