MISO and PJM are assessing the need for an interregional study and transmission plan this year.

The New York PSC lauded Central Hudson Gas and Electric and assisting parties for their quick response to outages stemming from the early February blizzard.

The Midwest has become ground zero for the future of transmission policy because of incumbent TOs' stifling control, R Street Institute's Devin Hartman says.

A second meeting of FERC and state regulators trying to spur transmission buildout exposed differences over expanding the definition of transmission benefits.

MISO and SPP said that they will create a Targeted Market Efficiency Project study process to look for even more interregional project opportunities.

FERC granted NextEra Energy Transmission Southwest’s request to recover all prudently incurred costs associated with an $85.2 million competitive project.

In a Q4 call, PG&E for the first time put a price tag of more than $25 billion on its proposal to underground 10,000 miles of lines in high-threat fire areas.

The California PUC ordered the electric sector to reduce greenhouse gasses and adopted a plan to add 40 GW of new clean resources at a cost of $49 billion.

Nevada regulators have approved NV Energy’s $901 million Greenlink North project and two major solar-plus-batter storage projects proposed by the utility.

FERC Chair Richard Glick said he hopes to issue a final rule on transmission planning and cost allocation by the end of the year or early 2023.
