MISO proposed requiring upgrades needed by generation projects to reach certain voltage and price levels before they can be tested for cost-sharing eligibility.

MISO temporarily backed off requiring load-serving entities to provide the location and capacity values of distributed energy resources for planning models.

Records and interviews with stakeholders indicate the June 18 vote that could open PJM's end-of-life transmission planning to competition resulted from intense lobbying.

FERC denied Anbaric Development Partners' request for an order directing PJM to allow developers of offshore transmission “platforms” the ability to obtain injection rights.

SPP is facing a two-month delay in gaining FERC approval of the Tariff for its Western Energy Imbalance Service market, staff said.

About 5,800 MW of offshore wind can be interconnected to points along the southern New England coast without significant upgrades..

About 170 stakeholders turned out for ISO-NE’s teleconference review of the Phase One proposals in its Boston competitive transmission solicitation.

MISO must clear up language regarding surplus interconnection service and material modifications to comply with Order 845, FERC ruled.

Some regulators aren’t convinced about merging MISO’s transmission planning with interconnection studies, a move some say could improve cost effectiveness.

PJM failed to comply with FERC’s conditions for exempting “immediate need” transmission projects from competition and must increase its transparency.
