The Sustainable FERC Project has released an interactive map of MISO’s interconnection queue, highlighting many renewable gigawatts the footprint has lost out on.

MISO is juggling several transmission planning activities as it faces a cascade of new gigawatts in its interconnection queue.

PJM's Planning Committee endorsed the use of a 13-year load model with data from 2002-2014 for the 2020 reserve requirement study.

Facing an unprecedented number of new generator applicants, MISO reaffirmed its aim to speed up its interconnection queue.

MISO said it foresees hundreds of gigawatts in mostly carbon-free resource additions by 2040, according to its new transmission planning future scenarios.

MISO, PJM and SPP are close to meeting FERC’s transparency requirements around affected-system studies, but their compliance filings still need fine-tuning.

CAISO presented the Western Energy Imbalance Market’s Governing Body its plan for accommodating hybrid generation and storage resources.

MISO proposed requiring upgrades needed by generation projects to reach certain voltage and price levels before they can be tested for cost-sharing eligibility.

MISO must clear up language regarding surplus interconnection service and material modifications to comply with Order 845, FERC ruled.

Some regulators aren’t convinced about merging MISO’s transmission planning with interconnection studies, a move some say could improve cost effectiveness.
