Entergy embarked on restoration efforts  following Hurricane Ida but won't guess as to how long power could be out for several thousand customers in Louisiana.

Entergy said Hurricane Ida caused "catastrophic" transmission failures Sunday, leaving more than a million customers -- including all of New Orleans -- in the dark.

Entergy has warned that some customers could be without power for weeks as Hurricane Ida strikes MISO South. 

Louisiana and Mississippi joined MISO and its TOs in opposing LS Power’s campaign for regional cost sharing of transmission projects down to 100 kV.

Xcel Energy’s push to add nearly 10 GW of renewable energy will hinge largely on long-haul transmission projects, CEO Ben Fowke said.

MISO staff continue to keep advisories in effect and compile data on the emergency and subsequent rolling blackouts caused by Hurricane Laura.

FERC rejected a new argument by the Louisiana PSC in a 17-year-old case tied to a now terminated agreement among Entergy’s operating companies.

American Electric Power said it has received enough regulatory approvals to fully move forward with its 1,485-MW North Central Wind Project in Oklahoma.

FERC rejected a pair of complaints from the Louisiana PSC related to a dispute over how Entergy previously allocated production costs among its companies.

Louisiana regulator Foster Campbell broadened his complaint over RTO expenses with a letter challenging SPP's and MISO's spending.
