MISO and PJM are evaluating proposed interregional market efficiency projects, but a supplemental project by AEP could undermine most of the proposals.

PJM’s Planning Committee held its first special session on cost caps and other cost-containment provisions for competitive transmission bids.

Panelists at last week's Organization of PJM States Inc. meeting discussed the challenges of controlling transmission project costs.

FERC Order 1000 is providing savings to ratepayers, but a lack of transparency in RTOs’ competitive solicitations is undermining confidence, speakers told the Energy Bar Association Mid-Year Energy Forum last week.

A group of MISO transmission owners has petitioned Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan for more time to draft a petition challenging FERC's Order 1000.

FERC is giving until Sept. 2 to provide comments on recommended changes to Order 1000 following a June technical conference.

Nearly every participant at a FERC technical conference on Order 1000  urged the commission to improve transparency in  planners’ decision-making processes.

FERC rejected ITC's request that it bar transmission rate reductions in Order 1000 competitive solicitations, instead scheduling a technical conference.
