A Brattle Group-Grid Strategies study on transmission planning pinpoints inefficiencies that hinder the integration of new renewable resources.

Advocates of grid-enhancing technologies said “shared savings” is needed to persuade utilities to adopt low-cost investments to free up crucial transmission.

Decarbonizing the U.S. grid will also mean overcoming communities’ aesthetic objections to large projects, Seattle City Light CEO Debra Smith told SEPA.

Major transmission construction will help the grid tolerate increasingly severe weather, panelists said at a recent ACORE webinar.

The energy industry needs a federal investment tax credit specifically for transmission, according to a report by the American Council on Renewable Energy.

New York state energy agencies released a study urging faster permitting, planning and approval processes to build transmission to accommodate renewables.

The expanded MOPR will cost PJM ratepayers almost $9.7 billion over nine years if FERC adopts revised floor prices allowing most nuclear plants to clear.

Rob Gramlich of Grid Strategies examines how ERCOT's market performed this summer, finding it provided price signals to attract and retain resources.

Consumers in MISO and PJM could save $7 billion a year if the RTOs adopt changes to further integrate renewables and storage, according to a new report.

As PJM stakeholders anxiously await FERC’s ruling on expanding the MOPR, a new analysis says the policy could signifigantly increase capacity market prices
