Members of the Organization of MISO States sent a letter to contradict aspects of NERC’s Long-Term Reliability Assessment, disputing the ERO’s label of MISO as being at “high risk.”

The new ERAS processes in MISO and SPP allow certain power plants to effectively jump the interconnection line, skipping ahead of hundreds of other projects already waiting their turn, writes Southern Renewable Energy Association Executive Director Simon Mahan.

FERC ruled that MISO is free to continue using its interconnection queue fast lane, shutting down rehearing requests from several clean energy organizations.

The Southern Renewable Energy Association appeared before Entergy’s state regulators to urge them to think twice before considering leaving MISO for the Southeast Energy Exchange Market.

A new Brattle report puts a spotlight on the Southeast as the only major U.S. region without thorough transmission planning and recommends it develop a portfolio of projects or risk failing to keep up with the times.

Protests and endorsements have turned up in response to MISO’s second attempt with FERC to annually cap project submittals to its interconnection queue based on a megawatt value.

SEEM's opponents argued that FERC should recognize the market as a loose power pool and regulate it accordingly.

Clean energy nonprofits continued to try to persuade Entergy and MISO South state commissioners to embrace a broader view of cost allocation for an upcoming long-range transmission portfolio the RTO intends for the subregion.

A renewable energy trade group asked MISO to put more thought into how HVDC transmission’s ability to infuse the footprint with more external capacity could influence MISO’s capacity auctions.

MISO’s 2024 Transmission Expansion Plan increased slightly in cost to $5.8 billion while the Southern Renewable Energy Association requested MISO explore an alternative to an Entergy Texas reliability project.
