Exelon prioritized improving "our regulatory outlook in Illinois," CEO Calvin Butler said, after the state's Commerce Commission rejected ComEd's integrated grid plan for failing to meet core provisions of the Climate and Equitable Jobs Act.

Streamlining and accelerating permitting is just one of the potential uses DOE envisions for AI to accelerate the U.S. power system’s transition to 100% clean energy and the modern, efficient, secure grid needed to reach that goal by 2035.

Paul McGlynn has taken over as PJM's vice president of planning, and Aftab Khan has filled the newly created executive vice president of operations, planning and security.

A group of demand response providers in PJM proposed adding two hours to the availability window that binds when the resource can be deployed by the RTO.

With more than 300,000 buildings, the U.S. government is the nation’s largest energy consumer and “a steady customer prepared to make long-term investments,” GSA Administrator Robin Carnahan said.

Panelists at the GridWise Alliance's gridCONNEXT conference discussed how to reliably and affordably enable the energy transition with smart meters, distributed energy resources and other investments at the grid's edge.

"The energy transformation will last decades, not years, which is why we are confident that investment opportunities will continue to strengthen and lengthen our rate base growth,” CEO Calvin Butler said.

PJM presented three shortlisted scenarios being considered in its 2022 RTEP Window 3 to address growing data center load in Virginia and deactivation of the Brandon Shores generator outside Baltimore.

Exelon utilities will work on transmission upgrades as the Brandon Shores coal-fired power plant prepares for deactivation.
