SPP and MISO are picking up the pace of developing their 2020 coordinated system plan, staff told the Seams Steering Committee.

MISO and SPP are both recommending the RTOs take another stab this year at a coordinated system plan in their elusive pursuit of an interregional project.

SPP is working with both MISO and AECI to develop coordinated system plans in the search for joint projects, staff told the RTO’s Seams Steering Committee.

MISO and SPP are optimistic the RTOs will finally agree on an interregional transmission project, they said at GCPA's 7th annual MISO South Conference.

FERC approved PJM-MISO JOA revisions regarding coordinated system plans and approved tighter site control requirements in MISO's interconnection procedures.

SPP members moved to eliminate Z2 revenue credits for sponsored transmission upgrades, the source of years of stakeholder frustrations and jokes.

The SPP Seams Steering Committee discussed last month's level 1 energy emergency alert and, the RTO's 3rd unsuccessful attempt to partner with MISO.

The possibility of a MISO-SPP transmission expansion must wait, as the RTOs concluded their third coordinated system plan without a single project.

MISO and SPP are making earnest efforts to coordinate transmission development along their shared seam, according to speakers at MARC.

FERC approved changes to the MISO-SPP joint operating agreement intended to improve an interregional planning process that has yet to produce projects.
