PJM and FERC must reconsider how they allocate the costs of high-voltage transmission projects developed to satisfy individual utilities’ planning criteria.

FERC reopened proceedings regarding PJM’s controversial Bergen-Linden Corridor and Artificial Island projects in New Jersey.

Fernandez told the PJM MIC that his staff are still completing calculations for retroactively reallocating costs for certain transmission projects.

FERC last week denied several rehearing requests over cost allocation for three Virginia Electric Power Co. transmission undergrounding projects.

FERC approved part of PJM’s cost responsibility assignments for its updated RTEP, but rejected cost allocations for four cross-border projects.

Federal courts rejected two challenges involving FERC Order 1000: one to Minnesota's ROFR law, and another to MISO's interregional cost allocation.

MISO said it will revise its regional cost-sharing practices for interregional projects with SPP to match its process for PJM seams projects.

MISO is delaying release of a final draft of its cost allocation redesign for market efficiency projects because of conflicting stakeholder feedback.

The SPP RSC (Regional State Committee) approved the scope for a study of cost allocation in wind-rich areas, a problem that grows along with the RTO’s wind generation.

FERC denied a challenge to its 2017 order allowing SPP to change its regional cost allocation review.
