Panelists at EUCI’s Transmission Expansion in the Midwest conference said industry must focus on exporting wind energy and overcoming seams processes.

Despite not having any of its projects constructed, Clean Line Energy Partners, and CEO Mike Skelly, remain optimistic.

Clean Line Energy Partners filed a request for rehearing of the Missouri PSC's rejection of the company's Grain Belt Express transmission project.

Clean Line Energy said it is considering legal appeals following the Missouri Public Service Commission’s third rejection of its Grain Belt Express.

Two Arkansas landowner groups filed suit to block the 700-mile HVDC Plains & Eastern Clean Line project, questioning the legality of the project’s approval and its right to use eminent domain.

The House Committee on Natural Resources advanced the APPROVAL Act, designed to stop the Plains & Eastern Clean Line, by a 19-11 vote.

The U.S. Department of Energy said it would participate in the development of Clean Line Energy Partners Plains & Eastern transmission project.

The Energy Department said it “did not identify widespread significant impacts as a result of construction or operations and maintenance" of the Plains & Eastern.

Opponents of Clean Line Energy’s proposed Plains & Eastern project say the Department of Energy is conducting reviews of the transmission line without a proper rulemaking process.

Facing opposition in Arkansas, Clean Line Energy is using an unusual tactic in order to garner public support for a proposed project: online petitioning.
