NYISO's update to its draft Reliability Needs Assessment still shows an expected capacity shortfall by 2034, though it is slightly less than what was initially presented in July.

NYISO's final 2025 project budget recommendation re-added several items, such as the storage as transmission project, that will be presented to the Management Committee later this year.
