MISO is accepting proposals designed to relieve its costly North-South transmission constraint, but is still zeroing in on how to evaluate submissions.

Two of three economic study requests presented at ISO-NE’s Planning Advisory Committee meeting pertained to offshore wind development.

Research suggests offshore wind farms offer huge potential for capacity gains in PJM’s footprint, but will take a significant buildout of transmission to unlock that possibility.

PJM wants stakeholder feedback about whether its Distributed Energy Resource Ride Through Task Force should pivot in a new direction.

SPP General Counsel Paul Suskie laid out the implications of FERC’s reversal of a waiver it had previously issued to the RTO on Tariff Attachment Z2.

After prodding by stakeholders, MISO says it will boost renewable generation estimates in each of the four 15-year future scenarios that guide its annual transmission planning process.

The MISO Planning Advisory Committee will vote on a DTE Energy proposal to broaden the scope of the RTO’s storage-as-transmission assets initiative.

MISO will take another crack at identifying a project that could provide an alternative to the constrained transmission path linking its North and South regions.

MISO and its stakeholders are considering how to more accurately measure the potential benefits of proposed transmission projects.

MISO is considering moving ahead with a plan to streamline its report detailing the projects in its annual Transmission Expansion Plan beginning this year.
