Connecticut’s General Assembly passed a bill that doubles the renewable portfolio standard to 40% by 2030 while also revoking net metering guarantees.

State regulators proved reluctant to be pinned down on predictions about the future of the grid at the annual meeting of the Organization of MISO States.

Representatives of MISO sectors gathered to discuss how a greater number of distributed energy resources could interact with the grid.

ISO-NE expects growing energy efficiency and behind-the-meter solar generation to more than cancel out load growth over the next 10 years.

U.S. grid operators, the ISOs and RTOs across the country, were well prepared for the first continent-wide total solar eclipse in nearly a century.

MISO regulators gathered to discuss how the electricity sector will accommodate the growth of distributed energy resources within the RTO’s footprint.

CAISO is preparing for the upcoming solar eclipse, which is expected to take about 5,600 MW of utility-scale and rooftop solar generation off the grid.

More than 1,000 people attended the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners’ Summer Policy Summit.

Maine Gov. Paul LePage followed through on his promise to veto a solar net metering bill, calling it bad policy that would “result in irrational outcomes.”

The growth of distributed energy resources and energy storage in CAISO will require new approaches and better coordination between system operators.
