MISO members are urging the RTO to implement dynamic line ratings, saying the benefits would outweigh the costs.

The Organization of MISO States continues to signal its grid operator that regulators are ready for dynamic transmission line ratings in the footprint.

MISO’s Monitor issued five new recommendations in its annual State of the Market report, focusing on seams and efficient use of the transmission system.

Representatives from utilities, RTOs and technology vendors gathered at FERC headquarters for a workshop to discuss the role of grid-enhancing technologies.

FERC and NERC are reviewing the more than 70 comments filed in response to their proposal on disclosure of CIP violations to determine their next steps.

Steve Huntoon argues that requiring transmission owners to use dynamic and ambient-adjusted line ratings is a no-brainer to get the most out of the grid.

MISO is considering how to respond to transmission owners’ adoption of dynamic line ratings, acknowledging changes would be necessary with widespread use.

MISO’s Monitor pointed to other RTOs to illustrate the ineffectiveness of the coordinated transaction scheduling (CTS) between MISO and PJM.

Risk-averse engineers and outdated utility ratemaking structures are preventing quicker deployment of innovative technologies.
