MISO's draft 2024 Transmission Expansion Plan calls for $5.5 billion in projects, with the South region again accounting for some of this year’s most expensive projects.

MISO’s Planning Subcommittee will tackle possible modifications to expedited project reviews, the process that allows transmission developers to begin construction earlier than usual.

FERC OKd Dairyland Power Coop’s requested rate incentives for the Wilmarth-North Rochester-Tremval project, a 169-mile line spanning Minnesota and Wisconsin.

MISO juggled several projects over 2023 designed to fend off imminent reliability problems and will keep up the multitasking in 2024.

The MISO board approved the $9 billion, 572-project 2023 Transmission Expansion Plan, which contains the most expedited project reviews ever.

MISO says its 2024 Transmission Expansion Plan will look much the same as last year’s MTEP.

Just three of MISO’s 11 member sectors voted to support the RTO’s $9 billion 2023 Transmission Expansion Plan.

MISO is off the hook as far as having to conduct annual cost-benefit analyses for its major transmission projects, FERC has ruled.

MISO announced it must conduct more analysis on three new substations proposed by Entergy for expedited treatment in the RTO’s annual planning cycle.

MISO’s lead planners told the Board of Directors that more expensive annual Transmission Expansion Plans will become the norm, saying MTEP 23’s $9.4 billion package is a sign of future scattershot load growth in the footprint.
