The Louisiana Public Service Commission abruptly pulled the plug on its long-awaited, statewide energy efficiency program weeks after selecting a contractor to measure savings.

MISO’s preliminary 2025 Transmission Expansion Plan is set to become another record-breaking collection, at 434 transmission projects at an estimated cost of $11 billion.

Entergy Louisiana confirmed a new, $10 billion Meta AI data center is the motive behind its recent filing to build three new gas plants at a combined 2.3 GW.

The Louisiana PSC has taken first steps to consider Entergy’s request to power a proposed $5 billion AI data center in north Louisiana with $3.2 billion in mostly natural gas generation.

Entergy said it can tackle industrial load growth with new solar, carbon capture technology at new and existing gas plants and by possibly bringing new nuclear capacity into the mix.

Entergy promoted its Hurricane Beryl response alongside a pair of pending settlements with Louisiana regulators over rates and the Grand Gulf Nuclear Station during a second quarter earnings call.

MISO announced it was unable to land on a suitable substitute for a $260 million Entergy Louisiana reliability project about eight months after it announced an alternatives study.

Entergy’s CEO touched on recent developments on a first quarter earnings call, including the utility’s grid hardening plan for Louisiana.

The Louisiana PSC voted 3-2 to approve Entergy Louisiana’s hotly debated, $1.9 billion grid hardening proposal to be funded by ratepayers, four days after the utility submitted it.

NextEra Energy Transmission and the Southern Renewable Energy Association are asking FERC to intervene in a last-ditch effect to save the only competitive transmission project ever approved for MISO South.
