ERCOT is recommending a 351-mile, 345-kV transmission line in the Lower Rio Grande Valley, a region identified as in urgent need of more capacity.

RTOs and ISOs described their strategies for using quick ramping products to offset weather-dependent renewable resources at a FERC conference Tuesday.

A new report says wind and solar projects in MISO’s and SPP’s generator interconnection queues are being asked to pay the bill when connecting to the grid.

SPP says that consolidating its transmission planning processes would save $9 million annually and produce a more holistic view of its transmission needs.

Participants at FERC’s workshop on performance-based ratemaking approaches support GETs, but they disagree on how best to foster their adoption.

Responding to February’s devastating winter storm, Texas regulators consider ways to add ties to neighboring grids without triggering FERC oversight.

ERCOT's final resource adequacy assessment for the fall indicates it has sufficient installed generating capacity to meet peak demand under extreme conditions.

Texas regulators discussed with ERCOT market participants potential changes to an energy market that has been virtually untouched for almost 20 years.

ERCOT staff says they plan to continue in 2022 their conservative operations approach of setting aside additional reserves by procuring ancillary services.

The D.C. Circuit backed FERC's reversal of a waiver over SPP transmission upgrade costs, even though it resulted in a “free pass” for some system users.
