Incoming SPP CEO Lanny Nickell told attendees at the Energy Synergy Summit that infrastructure is the key to managing the energy transition.
MISO hopes to become the next RTO with a limited express lane in its interconnection queue to help get badly needed generation online faster.
Major regional and interregional transmission lines might be big investments, but they tend to produce more benefits than expected, RMI said in a report.
MISO estimates its savings and efficiencies benefited its members to the tune of just over $5 billion over 2024.
With data centers already causing “major disturbances” on the grid, the industry could learn lessons from the recent growth and implementation of IBRs, according to a new Elevate Energy Consulting study.
As some data center operators plan to power their facilities with onsite generation, one researcher a California Energy Commission workshop suggested it might be better to get electricity from the grid instead.
Participants at the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners’ Winter Policy Summit emphasized the need for additional investment in the grid.
MISO expects the revamp of its transmission planning futures will be done by November and will yield an extra scenario dedicated to slow-moving generation construction.
ISO-NE revised its compliance proposal for FERC Order 904 to allow generators to be compensated for reactive power outside the standard power factor range.
Presenting to the ISO-NE Planning Advisory Committee, Eversource Energy introduced a new set of asset-condition projects that could cost the region billions over multiple decades.
