The first MISO-SPP interregional project inched closer to reality Thursday with a vote of confidence from the MISO Planning Advisory Committee.

The odds of SPP and MISO conducting a second joint study dropped as the RTOs’ reviews are not lining up. Plus the Z2 Task Force is narrowing alternatives.

The MISO and PJM targeted market efficiency project portfolio has dipped from seven projects to five.

At last week's MISO Planning Advisory Committee, stakeholders predicted that the proposed changes to the interconnection queue will face challenges at FERC.
