MISO executives issued dire warnings about the possible fallout if the grid operator doesn’t pursue big ticket transmission projects in its footprint.

MISO, SPP won’t do a major interregional transmission study in 2021; they are focusing on a joint targeted interconnection queue study.

Minnesota regulators approved a PPA between Xcel Energy and a 200-MW Iowa wind farm that the utility says is the “last good-priced” wind in MISO.

A lack of interregional transmission projects is stymying the growth of renewable resources in SPP, MISO & PJM, according to a new report released by ACORE.

Clean energy advocates are contesting MISO’s request for another extension to comply with FERC Order 841.

FERC conditionally approved NextEra Energy Transmission’s $660 million purchase of GridLiance transmission operations in MISO, SPP and CAISO.

FERC granted MISO permission to embed the production costs of providing spinning reserves in its market prices.

FERC cited the filed rate doctrine on retroactive ratemaking to reject a pair of SPP requests for waivers to resettle billing errors.

COVID-19 and record hurricane and wildfire seasons made 2020 “a unique and at times challenging year,” FERC said in its State of the Markets report.

MISO unveiled a first look at possible long-range transmission projects, igniting testy exchanges between stakeholders over the necessity of grid expansion.
