New Jersey’s plan to create a wind port that will serve as a hub for the East Coast got a boost from applications by prominent offshore wind players.

PJM and New Jersey BPU staff gave stakeholders details on the terms of the transmission projects the state is seeking to develop to facilitate offshore wind.

Building new transmission could help the economy recover from the pandemic and help fight climate change, according to a panel at the WIRES Summer Meeting.

FERC will create a task force with state regulators to spur increased transmission, a recognition of Order 1000's failure to produce any interregional projects.
