NEPOOL and NESCOE are hiring Peter Flynn, a former National Grid executive, to serve as administrator of the Transition to the Future Grid project.

New England needs to build much more onshore transmission to facilitate the incoming surge of offshore wind generation, panelists on a NECA webinar said.

About 5,800 MW of offshore wind can be interconnected to points along the southern New England coast without significant upgrades..

Generation and load interests are no closer to agreement over ISO-NE's Energy Security Improvements proposal, a NECA webcast discussion showed.

AEE presented a paper recommending that ISO-NE and NEPOOL consider borrowing from NYISO’s effort to plan for a renewable-heavy future.

ISO-NE presented the preliminary results of economic studies conducted for NESCOE and Anbaric.

PJM on Friday hosted an IPSAC meeting with ISO-NE and NYISO to provide input for the development of the Northeast Coordinated System Plan.

New England’s grid will see diminishing returns from the incremental addition of offshore wind as more megawatts are added, analysis from ISO-NE shows.

ISO-NE’s wholesale market costs last fall declined 38% year over year to $1.5 billion, with both energy and capacity market costs decreasing significantly.

ISO-NE will file two versions of its Energy Security Improvements market design with FERC after NEPOOL's Participants Committee approved a modified version.
