The PJM Members Committee voted against each of the dozen proposals brought to address rising data center load as part of the RTO’s Critical Issue Fast Path process.

There's a clear parallel between what FERC did to speed the building of new generation at the turn of the millennium and what DOE wants to do today to accelerate the growth of critical data infrastructure, says former FERC Chair Pat Wood III.

DOE awarded Constellation a $1 billion loan for its Crane Clean Energy Center project, which will cut financing costs for the nuclear unit restart.

PJM stakeholders are to vote on a record-breaking number of proposals on how the RTO should integrate large loads without impacting resource adequacy.

State regulators say the push to give FERC jurisdiction over large load interconnections could leave the agency biting off more than it can chew around complex state-run processes, while failing to accomplish the intended goal of speeding approvals of hyperscale data centers.

The National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners passed a resolution urging FERC to resist the Department of Energy’s push to give itself jurisdiction over large loads interconnecting with the grid.

The Michigan Public Service Commission has approved tailored rate provisions between Consumers Energy and energy-intensive load customers.

FERC can make large load flexibility a reality through the implementation of the Department of Energy’s Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on large load interconnections, according to a new Nicholas Institute policy paper.

CPower saw its customers dispatched for a total of 38 GWh through the third quarter, beating all of last year's total dispatches of 16 GWh handily.
