MISO proposed requiring upgrades needed by generation projects to reach certain voltage and price levels before they can be tested for cost-sharing eligibility.

MISO temporarily backed off requiring load-serving entities to provide the location and capacity values of distributed energy resources for planning models.

MISO floated ideas on how it could better synchronize the studies supporting its annual transmission planning and generator interconnection queue processes.

MISO presented stakeholders a long-awaited set of planning futures it insists are final despite calls for an additional scenario that models a downturn stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic.

MISO will use the recommendations of the Coordinated Planning Process Task Team to work on synchronizing the RTO's transmission planning and generator interconnection processes.

MISO will ask FERC to waive its June 25 deadline for developers to demonstrate site control for projects entering MISO South’s 2020 interconnection cycle.

MISO will allow stakeholders an additional month to file their opinions on the RTO’s draft 2021 transmission planning futures scenarios.

Two MISO groups will discuss what the RTO can do to break down walls between the MTEP and network upgrade planning for the generator interconnections.

MISO released draft future scenarios that would reflect the increasingly dominant role clean energy resources will play in its planning process.

MISO will focus on the northern portion of its footprint with two supplemental studies to be included in its 2020 Transmission Expansion Plan cycle.
