Massachusetts lawmakers and industry members must double down on efforts to rapidly scale up new renewable technologies to meet the needs of the energy transition, speakers at the Northeast Energy and Commerce Association’s Energy Innovation Forum emphasized.

Stakeholders are split on whether FERC should adopt additional changes to its generator interconnection rules, or focus on implementing Order 2023 while letting specific regions go further on their own, according to comments filed after a September technical conference.

Different industry stakeholders have estimated it may take five to 10 years for FERC Order 1920 to have any major impacts on transmission planning.

The suspension of ISO-NE's Order 2023 implementation due to FERC's inaction has caused uncertainty and stress for some clean energy developers in New England.

NYISO’s Operating Committee approved the system upgrade facilities and system deliverability upgrade studies for Class Year 2023.

ISO-NE submitted its compliance to the commission in May, but FERC has yet to rule on the proposal, throwing a wrench in the RTO's implementation timeline.

FERC largely approved Order 2023 compliance filings for four utilities in the West and Texas, directing them to submit further compliance filings within 60 days.

Hybrid power plants, especially projects combining solar and storage, represent a growing amount of new generation online and in interconnection queues across the U.S., signaling a shift in how renewable power can be integrated into electric power markets, according to a new report from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
